Sweetness in Dublin
February 7th, 2008[youtube]w0d4vTyNMwY[/youtube]
My brother Sean and I have headed to Dublin to visit some accounts and attend the Digital Media Awards tomorrow night. Tonight, we decided to splurge and feast at Thornton’s. Here’s a video of the desserts. Mine was a warm chocolate tart with raspberry sorbet and rasberries. Sean had a blood orange souffle with mandarin sorbet. Memorable!
For those interested, Kevin Thornton has a lively blog here.

Wow Kieran - looks amazing. I am very jealous. As memorable as Murphy’s I wonder!?
Don’t know if you got my email, but please disregard, as I will now be there and with any luck so will Grandad from Head Rambles and Fiona from The Waiting Game!
Look forward to finally meeting you both!

How was dinner Kieran? Would you recommend it? Would you go again?

Deborah - Yeah - should be a bit of craic. I did say I’d cover for you. And Sarah, it was very good (especially the desserts), and very expensive. I liked that the menu is quite short (three options for a la carte main course). The wine list was impressive, as was the fact that Kevin Thornton came out of the kitchen and went table to table greeting…

That was a nice touch alright.

Thornton’s still my favourite Dublin eatery.
