    New Century at Hart's Corner is decent (although check Streetview re parking). If you're driving, Millennium Chinese in the Maple Centre at the Navan Road/Cabra Roads junction is a bit further away but good (and has plenty of parking).

    I agree about Millenium, we've used it for years. The car parking is very handy.

    Pearl River is hands down the best Chinese in that area. Park in Phibsboro shopping centre and it's not even a 2 min walk. It's no more than a 5 min walk from the Mater hospital

    If you copy the story title into one of your other browsers you should be able to read it (you can read "ten stories per device" free per week according to The Irish Times but in reality you can read ten per browser so on just my phone I have three browsers so read 30 articles free per week).

    Or, the relevant part: "Pearl River in Phibsborough, D Limit African & European Restaurant on Ballybough Road in Dublin and Shanghai House in Cork were served closure orders."

    My heart sunk when I read it but I drive past it every day and haven't noticed it closed once. I would be interested to see the violation because some of them can be quite small and nonsense but I won't be eating there until I find out

    Don't bother with Rainbows, I ate ocassionally from there for years as it was one of the best around but stopped at the start of the year as the quality of their food had dropped, went back a few weeks ago to see was there any improvement to which there wasn't or if anything it was even worse.

    Millennium on the Navan Road is probably one of the best in the area.

    It doesn't say precisely here. But the closure order was served on 04/06/2015, and it was lifted on 12/06/2015. So presumably Pearl River is open again. I'd be surprised if this doesn't cause it permanent damage. Directly across from Pearl River was Giles Brothers fishmongers. They had been there since the 1950s, but in January 2014 they received a closure order. They reopened but didn't last. They are completely gone now. What a sad end to a lifetime's work.

    I see John Doyle's pub, on Doyle's Corner, also got some sort of closure order for over a month - 8.5.2015 to 17.6.2015: "John Doyle's Bar (Closed activity: Production of ice in the basement ice machine)".

    Most domestic kitchens would fail similar inspections. I'm absolutely sure mine would. We survive.

    I don't know. Look at Quinn's in Drumcondra! Still packed on match days despite the most vile and horrific breach of the H&S regulations.
