The Irish Restaurant Awards took place last night, recognising the people and businesses providing the best food and drink experiences in the country.
With a prize dedicated to Dublin's restaurant scene in each category, we found out where the best chefs and dining experiences in Dublin are. The Dublin local food hero was named as Eoin McCluskly of Bread41 on Pearse Street, who also won the overall All-Ireland title in the category.
Best Sustainable Practices in Dublin went to Airfield Estate in Dundrum, a working urban farm which has sustainability at the fore of everything it offers to visitors, including the delicious food at its farm-to-fork restaurant Overends Kitchen. Meanwhile the Dublin winner for Best Free From was Vietnom in Stoneybatter, which serves Vietnamese street food made with local ingredients.
