y TAKING FLIGHT - MILANO’S MARGHERITA MARK MORIARTY STUDIO A chef ’s studio that works behind the scenes all week before opening its doors for one memorable night of food, conversation and genuine connection... That’s the premise behind Mark Moriarty Studio, an intimate new dining space opening beneath Wilton Park in Dublin 2 this August. The new venture by the ambitious chef, author and TV presenter, offers diners an intriguing version of modern hospitality that blurs the lines between restaurant, test kitchen and creative studio. By day, the Studio will be Moriarty’s headquarters for recipe development, filming, collaborations and private events. Come Friday evening, however, it transforms into one of the city’s most exclusive dinner experiences, with just 40 guests welcomed across two sittings. With a space designed to feel more like an elegant dinner party than traditional fine dining, guests are invited to pull up a seat at the open kitchen counter, settle into the snug or gather around the communal table while Moriarty and head chef Odhran Devine serve a seasonal six-to-seven-course tasting menu (€150) built around great Irish produce. In addition to a specially chosen wine list, and a Dead Rabbit Irish Coffee, the newcomer offers a chance to watch every dish come together just inches from your seat. With only 40 places available each week, featuring an early sitting from 5.30pm to 8pm, and a late sitting from 8.30pm to 11pm, we don’t expect these limited booking slots to hang around for long. Alternatively book in for a private dining event where you’ll have the space all to yourself. FOMO never felt more real. markmoriarty.ie/studio 30 Georges ST Arcade 02/06/2014 14:21 Page 1 Georges ST Arcade 02/06/2014 14:21 Page 1 FIRED UP IN DUBLIN Designed for sharing, a trio of handcrafted Mexican salsas from Dublin based Mi Amor has been spicing up dishes across the city this summer. Created by Chihuahua native Paola Almeida, each salsa is made in small batches using family recipes passed down from grandmothers, to mothers, and daughters, bringing authentic heat, flavour and plenty of personality to the table. Choose from the fresh and zesty Cheeky Green, the gradually building warmth of Slow Fire, or Hot Crush, a smoky, taco-stand-inspired salsa that packs a satisfying kick. Each works brilliantly with tacos, grilled meats, tortilla chips and pretty much anything you fancy pairing it with. As an added bonus, the Mi Amor range contains no added sugar or vinegar, relying instead on quality chillies, fresh vegetables and traditional Mexican techniques. Available online and from selected stockists including Picado Mexican Pantry, Lilliput Stores, and Firebyrd in Dun Laoghaire. miamorsalsas.com Georges ST Arcade 02/06/2014 14:21 Page 1 Georges ST Arcade 02/06/2014 14:21 Page 1 George's Street Arcade is Europe and Ireland's oldest shopping centre and is located in the heart of Dublin city centre less than 5 minutes walk from Grafton Street and Temple Bar. olde st shop Ginog c pin Ge orge 's Stree t Arcade is Europe and Ireland' s 's Str a dt A lrcoc dt d i E rh olde lstd o es sh tohphponpng c mg centre esns ess stalls ranging from trendy clothing, jewellery, funky music, collectable items, souvenirs and much more along with wonderful dining and l I l t thhisa tnh ean 5cl minutest c ao wrai lak fomoamr In t a s en s enc r ed Viicgtn d Viiocrt tan m a colle ana an ll co coe cltle bld f olde st shopping centre and is located in the heart of Dublin city centre less than 5 minutes walk from Grafton Stree t and Temple Bar.

The brands have teamed up on an initiative that sees Milano’s classic Margherita pizza added to the airline’s Bia dining menu. The pizza, which will be part of the menu on all short-haul flights, features Milano’s signature hand-stretched base, topped with rich tomato sauce, mozzarella, cheddar, black pepper and oregano. Aer Lingus says the collaboration is all about enhancing the travel experience, while Milano is looking forward to seeing its flavours take flight from restaurant to runway at heights of 30,000 feet.
