The Menu: Strawberry Fair
Apparently, Dear Old Dublin, though far from the largest population centre in Europe, nonetheless, has a larger urban footprint than most other European capitals, in other words, the epitome of urban sprawl. So you can imagine The Menu’s delight on hearing of Slow Food Dublin’s plans for an urban rooftop farm on top of the William’s and Wood’s building near Parnell Square, slap bang in the heart of the city. Naturally, a few bucks are required for such a venture so how about rustling up 50 of them to cover the cost of yourself and four other self-appointed gastronomic brainboxes competing in a fabulous food-related table quiz (July 29, Sugar Club). And even if you don’t fall asleep each night with your weary head resting on the Larousse Gastronomique, you can still have a bit of fun, swill back a few cocktails and even win a prize. www.slowfooddublin.com
