Boom in fine dining gives restaurant best year yet

One of Ireland’s best-known restaurants, Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud, is enjoying its best ever year.

The Dublin restaurant is Ireland’s only two-Michelin-star restaurant and director Stephane Robin said 2017 is turning out to be its best since it opened 36 years ago.

The stellar performance follows three consecutive record breaking years in 2016, 2015 and 2014 as the restaurant benefits from the boom in fine dining and the recovering economy.
