“It’s casual fine dining, proudly French old school but not handcuffed by it,” Conor Kavanagh says of his latest venture with Temple Garner who used to be found in the kitchen at Italian-minded San Lorenzo. The description’s spot on with Duck Á L’Orange, Cote De Veau and Coquille St-Jacques representing the traditional side of things and the Gnocchi Á La Parisienne and Crab-Creme Brûlée highlighting the playfulness of the kitchen.

Best Dish: Wild Brittany Sea Bass with Calamari & Roast Cauliflower, Saffron & Preserved Lemon, Ratte Potatoes, Confit Fennel and Pernod & Chervil Beurre Blanc – €28
