This week’s @sundaytimesireland review, in print today: @brightonroad18 in #Foxrock, in which we pose the question “have we all but lost restaurants perched above shops?”

“In an era of crazy key money and obscene rents and rates while prime spots set snapped up like prized turbot or blue fin tuna intercepted before ever making it to market, spaces like these are the restaurant equivalent of a granny flat, a compromise and, while economical, mostly invisible. However even as an endangered species they remain the sign of a vibrant and bustling neighbourhood…

While ground-floor perches are prime real estate sometimes the best stuff is sequestered upstairs. A benchmark of such is found on Brighton Road in Foxrock, a brilliant bistro (formerly Bistro One for 30 years) which is currently sailing successfully into its fourth decade in-situ and reminding us of two key lessons: the classics never age, and it’s always worth looking up…”

Across two visits - one midweek and one Sunday lunch at either ends of summer - we tried everything from crab on toast, spring rolls, vol au vents and chicken schnitzel to pan-fried hake, pork chops, roast beef and banoffee… it’s clear to see how this space has been so locally loved for over 30 years

When a New Orleans lunch begins at the bar and doesn’t actually get to the table until close to 3 P.M. (as planned) , you may be primed to order off script.

@galatoiresrestaurant is a trove of French Creole tradition - the soufflé potatoes and oysters Rockefeller were particularly good this time.

But the kitchen will also make custom combinations per request — so cobia with lemon caper sauce, add sweetbreads, and two soft shell crabs, sautéed, not fried, topped with more crabmeat.

And Billy Fontenot tending the cafe brulot “bonfire” for dessert.

I don’t get back to Jersey often these days, but I would for this. @bar.mutz is Chef @robbiefelice’s newest spot in downtown Westwood, and it is not your typical Italian restaurant.

Handmade mozzarella, twists on Italian classics, cocktails that set the mood, hip hop on the speakers, and graffiti on the walls. The whole place feels like a Brooklyn warehouse dropped into Jersey, and the energy is contagious. It is the kind of restaurant that makes you want to stay late, order another round, and just soak it all in.

Huge thanks to the team for the amazing hospitality — you made an already fun night even better. If you need an excuse to head out to Jersey, this is it. Swipe through to see more from the night!

It’s one of my favorite spots for ramen in the area. They have authentic Japanese dishes like their new Shoyu Beef Ramen,as well as, unique dishes like their incredible Japanese sweet potato ice cream dessert. They’re open till midnight Friday and Saturday and everything I’ve tried there is delicious and I definitely recommend checking them out!
