Cork city: Jacob's is just earthly and delicious

IF YOU’VE ever wondered what eating in Nebuchadnezzar II’s Hanging Gardens of Babylon might have been like then Jacob’s on the Mall is probably as close as you’ll get to a dry run in this part of the world.

Set in a lovely bright space, lots of air and light filtering through the soaring glass roof, the dining room is home to a spectacular collection of hanging baskets. Mid-air plants falling, trailing like Tallafornia hair extensions and other plants climbing upwards from huge containers strung above diners’ heads are impressive.
