"Doughboys" in Dublin is no boring high street sandwich shop. The real treats here are for the carnivores amongst us: seek out their porchetta...

"The Market Bar" in what is now known as Dublin's Cultural Quarter. There, you can find a tapas-focused bar - I recommend the cheap lunch menu...

"Dublin Barista School" is the perfect example of my theory that, when it comes to coffee, you actually get more if you're paying less...

"Irish Design Shop" in Dublin is the perfect shop to get that unique memento or gift to bring back home. No longer do I have to send friends cliché gifts!

"Whitefriar Street Church" in is the home to the relics of Saint Valentine himself. It should be on top of your list if you're planning a romantic visit!

"The Bridge 1859", owned by four of Ireland's best known rugby players, is probably one of the best places to enjoy a drink if you're in Dublin for a game.

"Neon" in Dublin is as authentic a Thai restaurant as it can get outside of Thailand. A nice little extra is the ice cream cone they bring to your table!
By
"John Fallons" is one of Dublin's finest little pubs, only feet away from Saint Patrick's cathedral. I like how easy it is to strike up a conversation here

About me
I was born here in Dublin where I now live and work after some time spent in both London and the Netherlands. I am a part-time picture editor for a national newspaper and freelance travel writer.
Besides travel I love my food and attending gigs.
Why Dublin?
With some of the best music, food, and of course bars, there is a welcoming buzz to my city to rival any, which is why I love Dublin. The Irish are known throughout the world for being welcoming and I like to think that you will find that wherever you go.
A short drive from both the mountains and the sea I think Dublin offers something special which you won't find in other cities.
