As our name suggests, we're massive fans of Dublin, and we will defend her honour even on the days when the skies are grey, and the Liffey is looking a little dirty. However, Dublin is lucky enough to be situated in Ireland, which is abundant with cool cities and slick spots outside of the commuter belt.
With this in mind, we've decided we're going to start doing the dirt on Dublin a little bit, kicking things off with Belfast.. Some of the Lovin Dublin crew have headed up north for a few days to check out the coolest bars, the best brunches and burgers, and to do a little bit of sightseeing. So if anyone has any suggestions for cool places to check out be sure to comment below or let us know on Twitter!
Now, don't be alarmed if you see some articles about Belfast popping up over the next few days - we're just spreading our wings a little bit, but our roots will remain firmly in Dublin's fair city.
