Last year was Luna while this year was Amuse on the 23rd of December.
Amuse is on Dawson Street and has a beautiful calm quiet dining room.
We decided we were going to take it easy and only have one glass of wine with dinner as I was heading on to a cocktail party afterwards. However, after we looked at the menu and chose the tasting menu we decided to order a bottle of wine as we felt we needed more than a glass to go with the five courses. We only drank a little over a glass each but we were glad we got the bottle!
Amy thought the a la carte looked more to her taste than the tasting menu but I persuaded to go for the tasting menu. She was glad she did!
Amuse serves Japanese-French fusion. The food looks amazing on the plate and is phenomenal tasting.
I think the pork was my favourite dish.
Dessert was what I considered to be the most average plate out of all of the dishes.
Amy chose cheese over the dessert. This attracted a €9 supplement which I thought was a little rich for forgoing the dessert for the cheese plate
Oh dear lord. Do you see the piece of cheese at the back - peeping out from the ramekin? That was the stinkiest tasting cheese ever. I like stinky cheese but man this was foul tasting!
It looked so innocuous but packed a serious punch.
Cheers to a great boozy Christmas lunch!
