Description:
This is just what Dublin needed: a price-conscious, darling little bistro and wine bar that endears itself to everyone. The wine's the thing here, so relax with a bottle of bordeaux or Côte du Rhône and nibbles from the menu. There's a lovely cheese plate named for West Cork cheesemaker Bill Hogan, superb Iberico hams from Spain, or, if you prefer, the small dining menu offers bistro favorites such as gravlax and blinis, or scrambled eggs with truffle butter.
