Not a great fish cooker myself but the housemates have a lot of good things to say about the new ‘Sea Pearls‘ fishmonger on South Richmond Street in Portobello – bright clean place with fresh and tasty fish at very reasonable prices and apparently the guys running the place are nice too. It’s been fish for dinner and fishcakes for supper here in our house.

The Dublin Meat Company: a direct selling craft butcher from factory to public. I availed of the offer of 10 good sized chicken fillets for 10 euro and 2Ib of round steak mince for 5 euro. These are big savings v Supervalue or Tesco. I also bought homemade chunky burgers I think they were 6 burgers for 4 euro – they were devoured at tea last night enjoyed by all, great quality. It was easy to find and accessible. Btw it is in Artane off the Malahide road, in Dublin.

There’s a great butchers beside Tesco in Greystones that offer 10 chicken breasts for €10. They also have really good mince…
