Cafés, quesadillas and kebabs.
Welcome to the Lovin Round Up, our weekly glance at the main hospitality headlines for Dublin including new openers, closures and all in between.
This week, foodies citywide have cause for celebration as there are four new spots to sink your teeth into - two cafés, a cute neighbourhood bistro and Ireland's first Uyghur restaurant.
All the details are here for you in one handy place - we're sound like that.
Ireland's first Uyghur restaurant opens on O'Connell Street
Definitely one for meat lovers to hit up, Afanti opened its doors by the Rotunda towards the end of last month and is providing Dubliners with a flavoursome intro to Uyghur cuisine. You can expect a focus on roasted mutton and beef as well as kebabs, hand-pulled noodles and dumplings. We covered this opener in more detail

The next time you're navigating the bounty of roundabouts Tallaght has to offer, know there's a reward waiting for you at the end of it all in the shape of new drive-thru café Mad Coffee.

Peperina Bistro opens in Portobello
This Irish kitchen with an Argentinian twist is the second venture for Peperina, which has served the people of Ranelagh for a decade. On the menu you can expect burgers, chicken wings, quesadillas, pastas - you name it, they probably serve it. You can read all about Peperina in more detail

New seaside café opens in Howth
Off Grid Coffee lifted their shutters in Howth this month, serving speciality brews from Dublin roasters Upside along with pastries, toasties and acai bowls. Their ham and cheese offering in particular looks like the dream post-swim snack and if you're looking to find out more about them you can do so
