New Years Eve.

We booked dinner at Delahunt for NYE 2015. 

We got into town a little early so we went for a drink in Pmacs. They didn't have any Lindeman's Framboise but they had the apple beer so went with that. 

Before we went to Delahunt we stopped to see the Luminosity show which was part of the New Years festival and was on at Iveagh House. Theme this year was Irish legends. Absolutely amazing! Don't you just love Dublin at this time of year?!

Then we walked to Delahunt. 

So walking into here is a little like stepping back in time. That's hardly surprising considering its housed in an old Victorian building. 

There, however, is nothing old fashioned about their food!!!

Great selection of wine by bottle and glass. They're not badly priced either. We had the French Cremant to start. They brought out bread which included an extremely addictive Guinness bread.

For my starter I chose the smoked salmon which came with more Guinness bread and pickled cucumber. Delicious. 

I had a glass of Picpoul de Pinet with my starter. 

I also tried some of the Sika deer carpaccio and the toast with bone marrow that Sean ordered.

Onto main course. I chose the pheasant which came with parsnip, sprouts and white pudding. I gave my sprouts away lol but the rest was absolutely fantastic!!!

Sean chose their special which was an incredibly tender beef cheek. 

Dessert is almost always my favourite part of a meal. I went for the chocolate fondant which comes with an incredible salt caramel ice-cream and a praline. 

Sean chose the roasted pear, hazelnut cake, almond milk ice-cream and cardamom custard. Also delicious. We had dessert wine 

The food was outstanding. The only thing I didn't particularly like was the table we had but that was because the party behind us kept banging my chair as they walked to get to their seats. They were entirely unapologetic! Oh well. You can't account for other people's lack of manners. 

We left there and walked to Camden Exchange. We haven't been back since we stumbled upon it on its opening weekend. Had one drink here. I had the Granny Smith spiced apple. Really v nice but I think I might just be over mason jar cocktails! :) 

Our last stop of the night before heading home to ring in the new year was The Jar pub on Wexford Street. 

We were there early enough so managed to get a table. The seats are soooo comfy and there's a very nice feel to the place. 

The raspberry beret cocktail I had was almost too good! And for some reason the Prince song got stuck in my head for most of the night. 

I thought this place was awesome and will definitely be back :) 

What a great way to finish off 2015!
