Wine, cider and Asian street food

Stopped in at Cavern at Baggot Street Wines on Upper Baggot Street after walking in the rain from the beer and cider festival at the RDS.



We didn't have food just had glasses of wine. I chose a Viognier - decent glass size.

The staff are so so nice and were v attentive! Brilliant vibe in a great space. 



You can also buy wine from Baggot Street wines and they charge corkage - I think it's €5 for wine. 

They brought out some popcorn with Parmesan, rosemary and sea salt. They were so moreish!! 



I will definitely be back for more wine and food!

The rain had disappeared when we were leaving so we took a stroll around Stephens Green and then headed Camden Street for food. 


Lots of places to choose from but we settled on Neon Asian Street food.



First off I will say that this would have been an exceptional visit but for the fact I'm not really a fan of communal style food sitting beside people and listening in on their conversations. 

You're brought to your seat, given menus and then when you're ready you go up to order at the counter.

I ordered Pinot Grigio and the Thai green curry with tiger prawns and steamed rice. The curries and rice are brought out in takeaway containers and the bowls are already on the table with plastic cutlery. 


The portions are generous and there were LOTS of prawns in the curry.  The curry had a lovely kick to it. 



The food is AWESOME!!! 

They give you cones so you can make your own soft serve ice cream but as you can see from my photo I'm not very good.


If you're a fan of Asian food you have got to try here!

Last stop of the evening was Against the Grain on Wexford Street. Just had a glass of Macivors Cider (they have it on draft here!) and then headed home! Spotted this on Leeson Street... Don't you just love Dublin sunsets?!
