Looking for a steer to a decent curry house and Italian from those with Dublin knowledge? Coming over from the UK for Leopardstown on the weekend. Ground could be riding good to soft with little rain forecast? Also any suggestions on a good venue to watch all the football/rugby/racing on Saturday afternoon would be appreciated.

Jewel in the Crown,Exchequer St off Wicklow St for your"" Fred McMurry "and Il Primo, Montague St, 014783373 its off Harcourt St for the Italian and you would be well advised to book the latter place today for the weekend.

don't know Dublin that well so I couldn't offer any advice....but by burpose is a very reasonable character who I'd fancy is on the money here.....he certainly wouldn't be in the "eat stones " brigade like Dan and the other lads.....who'd tell you the food is good in Thurles racecourse.....
They'd be in the "sure what harm it wouldn't kill ya" camp.....and it doesn't matter if they had to shitt in a hole in the ground afterwards either..... |

Beautiful bacon and cabbage in Thurles or are ye all above that.
Is it nervousness that's causing this constant need to go to the toilet all the time,try going before you leave. |

Not been in Il Primo for a good few years but it is a nice little place. Not many tables so booking may well be required.
Asador is a good place to grab a steak - Address: 1 Victoria House, Haddington Road, Dublin 4 Phone:(01) 254 5353. If you want to watch the rugby, drink and have something to eat, I believe the revamped Searsons is very good http://searsonsbar.ie/menus/ |

So made a debut venture to Peadar Kearney's tonight for the United match after all the recommendations from revered posters on here.
Underwhelmed!!would be kind. Diddli Oi is the nemesis of all sports fans and to have this **** playing instead of the commentary. The venue could do with a major face lift,floors worn bare and in desperate need of a revamp. I'd say Borneo has been at better barn dances in Boris or whatever ghastly part of Tipp he hails from. |

Dj876.....I was never ever in Peadar Kearneys in my life and after reading your post I never will be either.....
A warning sign should have been the fact that they sold cheap drink until 7pm.....when their customers are price sensitive ....that's enough for me.....that kind of promotion would be suitable for members of the Shamrock Rovers supporters club..... |

Now now Pikey ,lets keep things in perspective ,no need to wander to far from Youghal to find a few kips..Now is there...
|
|
By:
Wonks....there are kips everywhere.....the tricky bit is recognising them.....there are always tell tale signs though particularly with pubs.....
One advertising cheap drink.... A happy hour..... Or even worse.....a pub where the clientele are sporting green and white hooped tops..... That's the real bogey sign..... |

Or in my case those wearing the red of Cork , halfbaked nut jobs most of them , worked with many a Corkman in my day , most of them were under the delusion that they were hard done by , low self esteem more like , the usual tripe , Cork is the real capitol of ireland ..Stay in Youghal you're not needed up here mate...We even had one we called Tiny Tears after the doll , everytime he lost a bet he would cry in the bookies , shameful to watch it was , he gave honest Corkmen a bad name , a little like yourself...

Just a few things to pick you up on wonks.....never been to Youghal in my life.....and id say that's unlikely to change in the near future....
Now whats this about "worked with many a Corkman in my day".....ya did in yer hole.....ya never worked a day in yer life ya scrounger ya......didn't somebody say you got a gold watch from the dole office in Tallaght.....for 50 years unbroken service..... And as for tiny tears....no wonder the poor fukker was in tears....if he was listening to you....he'd be doing plenty crying..... |

By:
Pikey think you better have a word with nurse Mary , the pink tablets suit you better mate , relax breath deeply thats the man...

By:
wonks they are looking to build a lifesize statue of you outside the dole office......they cannot decide will it be one with you up on one of your piebalds.....one with your rovers top.....or just one with your hand out.....

And all copied from YOUR statue Pikey....
