A shot in the dark

Rigby’s, 126 Upper Leeson Street, Dublin; tel: 087-7939195

A shot in the dark

IF RIGBY’S wasn’t a restaurant, it could be a Marvel Comics superhero. By day, James Rigby’s deli-style joint serves up breakfast, light lunches and slice of the Big Apple to customers on Upper Leeson Street. By night it transforms into an edgy little restaurant — with no menu, just two choices per course, and a BYO (Bring Your Own) wine policy.

Dining out, it’s the kind of prospect you embrace wholeheartedly, or not at all. But the reviews of Rigby’s market-style dishes have been good, a sister business has opened on Dawson Street, and I’m up for an adventure. I recruit L, MF and MJG for a shot in the dark.
