where to eat Minetta Delicatessen TGI Friday’s Th
is is no ordinary deli. Despite its tiny size, the Hughes sisters manage to serve up the best Italian pizza, pressed sourdough sandwiches, wholefood salads, take-home meals, and deli pots for miles. Everything is made in-house, with the exception of a few well-considered suppliers such as Tartine Bakery’s sourdough, and Nick’s locally roasted coffee. Their signature ‘Devilled Crab’ sandwich is a marvel! And as for the ‘Bee Sting’ pizza? Oh my! The recent addition of a wine license allows the girls to pair up some excellent Italian wines with their fab food. Currently open 7 days and 2 evenings a week, this little deli is punching way above its weight. 1 Sutton Cross, Dublin 13 01 839 6344 minetta.ie twitter: @minettadeli fb: @MinettaDeliSutton Instagram: @minetta.deli TGI Friday’s is your number one authentic American style restaurant that makes every day feel like Friday.
