Restaurant review: Bastible, Dublin 8
ONE of the best things about city living for me is that cities renew themselves, often through happen-stance.
Take Temple Bar — the story goes CIE wanted to build a massive bus station between Dame St and the river so they began buying up old buildings and letting them out cheaply with the intention of levelling the lot once planning permission came through. Soon it was full of art spaces, galleries, and trendy second-hand record shops so permission was refused.
