Fat boy wants some food

Dathai

Im working on Parnell street at the moment, and Im getting tired of the lack of places to eat around here for lunch.Usually I just get something out of the chipper below my building, but its not as good as say a kebab, or a PROPER burger, none of this McDonalds / Burger King crap.

Could anyone suggest a decent place for pizza, curry, or kebab around the Dublin 1 area? Or would even deliver to it? (Iskanders dont deliver afaik )

Pizza: Mizzoni's on Dorset St. (not sure about opening hours/delivery times). Also, Rayhoon do a lunch special of any pizza + garlic bread + drink for €10)

"proper" Burgers: Cinelli's on Parnell Square, or Del Rio's on the bottom of Marlborough St.

Kebab: The only place worth mentioning is Istanbul in the Epicurean Food Hall on Abbey St. There used to be a great Lebanese place on Abbey st as well but tis now closed down

As for Chinese food, you're spoiled for choice. On Parnell St. itself there are about 3/4 that are decent. Some keep changing their names, so it's hard to keep up but i think they're called: New Oriental Palace, Charming Noodles, and a Korean place that i can't think of beside charming noodles whose name escapes me.

Best of all, there's a Chinese beside the Tax office (cathedral st........beside B. King on O'Connell st.) called The Golden Chinese. They're by far the best one in town.

One last thing, if you don't look too old (i.e. you could pass as a Student) you could always go into the canteen in the D.I.T. on Cathal Brugha St. They do a carvery style dinner with 3/4 options every day. All for €4.70. It's brilliant. Frazers on O'Connell st also do a decent carvery, but it's about €10.

Happy eating.

just up behind parnell street on north king street there are a few indian take aways, one of them (the red one) does a damn nice kebab with naan bread plus toppings etc.

Was in Hop House opposite Fibbers on Parnell St. for lunch yesterday, very very nice. €7.90 for a large serving of a lovely Korean dish, service is quick too so you'll be in and out during your lunch break no problem.
