Volpe Nera in Blackrock:

The chef of Volpe Nera is Barry Sun, who ran the kitchen at Etto for years. This new restaurant is a great example of the fact that some of the best food in Dublin is now being cooked in the suburbs.

Shucking delicious! Our Brandy Bay oysters on our ‘Bites’ menu come from a little inlet near Clarinbridge in Galway. We serve them with a zingy compressed cucumber, apple and chilli oil dressing 👌🏼😋 #oysters #shuckingdelicious #dublinrestaurants
