Three Dublin restaurants<\/a> have been added to the Michelin Guide<\/a> in what inspectors described as \u201ca great month\u201d for the city. The three additions \u2013 Hera<\/a>, For\u00eat<\/a> and The Pig\u2019s Ear<\/a> \u2013 follow Farmgate Lismore<\/a>, in Lismore, Co Waterford, which was added to the guide in July. <\/p>\n

In total, some 106 restaurants in the Republic now feature in the Michelin listings, which are updated every month. Inclusion does not equate to a star or Bib Gourmand, with these awarded at the guide\u2019s annual ceremony in February, but it is nonetheless seen as a strong boost to an outlet\u2019s reputation. <\/p>\n

The inspectors described Hera on Dorset Street in Dublin 1 as \u201cone of the hottest tickets in town\u201d. They said the restaurant, which is contained within pub Juno, \u201cprovides all the heartiness and full-flavoured cooking you expect from the best dining pubs\u201d.

\u201cHere, those dishes are peppered with global flavours, including several from the Mediterranean; as is often the case, the proud theme running throughout the menu is high-quality Irish produce,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n

In For\u00eat on Sussex Terrace in Dublin 4, the inspectors found \u201ca thoroughly French treat\u201d. They noted that the \u201cdelicious slice of France\u201d from the owners of Forest Avenue next door, was located above O\u2019Brien\u2019s pub, \u201cwhich couldn\u2019t sound more Irish if it tried\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Pig\u2019s Ear on Nassau Street in Dublin 2 \u201ccombines a love of classic, soul-warming cooking with a playful touch\u201d, according to the guide. Inspectors said diners need \u201clook no further\u201d if they wanted to find a traditional taste of Ireland, recognising chef-owner Stephen McAllister\u2019s respect for history in his recipes.<\/p>\n

Last month, the addition of Farmgate Lismore came with praise for a \u201csensibly priced menu with a prevailing ethos of fuss-free cooking and prime, locally sourced produce\u201d. The suggested diners would \u201cwish they could come here every week\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Three Dublin restaurants have been added to the Michelin Guide in what inspectors described as \u201ca great month\u201d…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28488,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[75],"tags":[18,117,19,17,22906,5281],"class_list":{"0":"post-28487","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-ie","11":"tag-ireland","12":"tag-michelin","13":"tag-restaurant"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28487","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28487"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28487\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28488"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28487"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28487"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28487"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
