2. Virgin Mary

Ireland's first non-alcoholic bar has arrived. It may contain no alcohol but, the drinks are top quality and it's a great place to meet a mate. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxaJ4LFH6cP/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

3. Franks

This old butchers has turned into a fine dining restaurant on Camden Street and get ready for a bit of a unique experience. As the restaurant is so small, everyone is sat at the same table. Definitely worth trying as something new. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxea92XHa7K/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

4. Kerb

A welcome addition to the little town of Foxrock. This middle eastern food will rock your world. Give the crispy coconut shrimp kebab a go, trust me. https://www.instagram.com/p/BykpSeCClQt/

5. Three Twenty

It's time for some ice-cream. This new ice-cream lab on Drury Street is a spectacle to watch with huge plumes of liquid nitrogen spreading out from behind the counters and into mixing bowls created with Crème Anglaise. You can choose from a range of flavours including PBJ, chocolate hazelnut, Oreo cookie and salted caramel as well as a cone or cup. https://www.instagram.com/p/ByA2lRriAns/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

6. Chi Mak

Korean fried chicken...need I say more? It's located on Aungier Street and I genuinely think that's all I need to say. Let this picture do the talking: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx14D-unW80/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

7. Circa

This new fine dining neighbourhood restaurant in Terenure is stunning. They have a very unique menu but the food is honestly gorgeous. The cod with broccoli and dill is just wow. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxW4mzIHsf-/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
