Ladies wot brunch

A couple of weekends ago I went with two of the girls for brunch at Cleaver East. I'd been there before but it was their first visit.

We enjoyed bottomless mimosas. They mean bottomless too!!! You get mimosas for two hours for €16. The staff are super attentive and they make sure your glass gets nowhere near empty!

The three of us ordered the same main course. We had the new pornburger which was chicken and waffles with bacon, pomegranate, onion, sriracha and a chilli slaw! I got a side of sweet potato fries with mine. It was lush

For dessert I ordered the Nutella cheesecake cornetto. It was really nice and even had the little bit of chocolate in the end of the cone. Like a cornetto should :)

Had coffee then finished off brunch with a round of cocktails. I had the Flirtini.

Another place that did not let me down when I returned. Banging tunes with great staff and DELICIOUS food. It is an awesome spot and cannot wait for my next visit!

Platform 61 brunch

Bottomless mimosas for €15 !!! But that's not where the goodness ends. Came to Platform 61 for brunch on a Saturday afternoon without reservation and managed to get a table. The idea behind the name I believe is a train station platform under Waldorf Astoria in NYC. Just like a subway platform it is small and functional. It is also perfectly formed.

The service was pretty much flawless. 

I ordered the Stun Bun (what a stun hun name for a dish) which is a grilled chicken fillet in a brioche bun with guacamole, tomato, onion, lettuce and tomato relish. This came with spicy sweet potato wedges. Delicious and perfectly cooked. The wedges are soooo nice!!!

The bottomless mimosas for €15 applies when you order any main course and it lasts for 1.5 hours. They mean bottomless, my glass wasn't empty before a second one appeared on the table.

I also had a dessert which was a white chocolate and raspberry creme brulee. It was lush!

This place is tucked away on South William Street. It is definitely worth seeking out. Sometimes you really are better off underground :)

One last thing to remember... Life is too short for cheap wine!
