Maybe you should try posting in the Food/Drink forum,

I'd say a mexican fast food joint might work, well thats what I'd like anyway!

There's a new place opening in O Connell St near the Wo King called 'The Mexican'. Not sure if it's gonna be a takeaway or proper restaurant type place.

Most of the mongolian food joints I have been to have been fast food ish places. You pay €5 for example and gets you an empty bowl and then any all the meat is there add it to the bowls and all the veg you want then chilli garlic etc. Then you hand the bowl to the dude behind the counter and he throws it on a big flat cooking surface cooks it all in front of you with a bit of soy sauce then once its cooked he puts it into a container and serves it to you and it is always delicious

Definately agree on this, I was is a Mongolian restaurant near Temple Bar in Dublin last year. Basically all you can eat for €25 type buffet, as described above, you choose the food you want from a kind of salad type bar including, veg, meat and a variety of spices and sauces, you hand it to the chief over the counter he cooks it on a flat cooking surface in front of you. You then put it in some pitta bread, the good thing is you can try various types so you don't have to eat the same thing twice. The staff there were also very nice and friendly.

I think it would go down a hit here, definately different from your normal restaurant anyway.

Yeah the place in Templebar is lovely been there a few times gotta go there hungry to really take advantage though but there aint many better words than all you can eat.

Beer wise in the places i have been its usually ordinary Heino or the like or the odd time tiger beer which is good
