Truly the best way to describe it…but we are just getting started as we have just enjoyed two days in Dublin, including at tasty stop at Ely Wine Bar…a place I had read about because their Executive Head Chef, Ryan Stringer, was a part of the Cakebread Winery American Harvest Workshop a few years ago.  By happenstance we met the co-owner, Michelle Robson, (amazing what happens when you ask for real wine glasses…) Ely is said to be the first restaurant with a wine by the glass menu, and it is tasty but not overly difficult or extensive, in a good way.  More on on Ely, and our second restaurant of our stay, Unicorn, later. 

But mainly our time in Dublin was fantastic – historical and modern – a good mix of old and new world in a beautiful city with incredibly friendly people.   Much, much more to come….internet access is sketchy….stay tuned!
