We booked a week off in August to do a little staycation/babymoon. We had a couple of Bluebook vouchers from the wedding so decided to put them to good use. We started off with two very different places in Wexford before moving across to Limerick. Monart An amazing birthday present from Sean was two nights … Continue reading Ireland – Staycation

Cocktails, Cocktails and More Cocktails!
I've been thinking lately about all the places I tend to go when I'm going out for cocktails in town. Generally on a random Friday after work we would head somewhere for a few drinks (and a cheeky cheese board). Will keep updating as I go 🙂 The Lucky Duck - One of Dublin's newest … Continue reading Cocktails, Cocktails and More Cocktails!
Mount Juliet Estate
We booked a last minute night away over the Easter weekend to Mount Juliet Estate in Kilkenny, which I had always heard great things about but had never visited. As the Leinster game was due to start at 3:30, we decided to get down a little bit earlier for a bit of lunch before the … Continue reading Mount Juliet Estate

Over the last few months, I have some how gone off gin and taken up whiskey. I even bought my own bottle (Sean was complaining I was stealing his), so I picked up a bottle of Arran 14 in the Celtic Whiskey shop one Friday and haven't looked back since! I've noted a couple of … Continue reading Dublin Whiskey
A weekend of Gin in Drogheda
About 3 years ago I was in Germany with Sean and I tried Monkey 47 for the first time, and this kicked off my love of gin!

Dublin Restaurants
I've decided to make a list of some restaurants we have been to over the years and are some of my favorites! Jo Burger - To me this is the best burger in Dublin, and I have a series hatred of Bunsen (its greasy, hipster and all round shite), but Jo Burger is my … Continue reading Dublin Restaurants
The Liberties
This was the first Saturday in a while where we had very little planned, so we decided to take a stroll into town and see where we would end up. Dollard & Co. Taking the idea from Eatily in New York, Dollard & Co. recently opened its doors on the quays. We got in about … Continue reading The Liberties
Dublin – Restaurants
After living in Dublin for a few years I decided to put together a couple of my favourite restaurants! 1: Paulies Pizza - In my opinion the best pizza in Dublin. It's located on the outskirts of Grand Canal Dock and can be accessed by train, or a 20 minute walk from Trinity College. Its … Continue reading Dublin – Restaurants
