Today’s Dublin Lunch Specials: A Beef Tagine Beauty From Brother Hubbard

Sometimes it’s hard to decide where you want to go for lunch. So hard, in fact, that the indecision becomes so overwhelming that you end up just opting for a quick deli sambo – only to get seriously envious when your co-workers return from their lunchtime expeditions with all sorts of delicious hotpots or salads.

So, we’ve decided to do the hard work for you – every day, we’re going to post the best of the daily lunch specials and rotating menus on offer from around the city. All you have to do is check in every day at noon, and decide what delicious dish you’re going to tuck into.
