Éalú at The Stonehouse Fionn Tra

The Slea Head Drive on the #Dingle peninsula has no shortage of breathtaking views, and finally it has a fittingly fantastic and frankly unmissable lunch stop in the form of @ealuatthestonehouse, led by couple @kallam_m_chef & @cliona.walker 💫

We write in our recent Sunday Times Ireland restaurant rveiew: “this is levelled up lunch, classic and traditional in certain ways, appropriately reflecting the historic stone building setting, but bold and challenging in others — lobster bisque, bouillabaisse and seafood chowder sit beside tonkatsu chicken, dahl makhani and Thai-style mussels.”

The desserts from the pastry section are particularly masterful and shine a light on the technical skill of the chocolatier background, particularly the impressively lifelike lemon, which we write “close your eyes and you could be in a two star restaurant in any European capital eating this. Open them, you’re in a stone house on the edge of the Atlantic, beside fairy forts and beehive huts, past free-roaming sheep, serving dishes that put most other visitor centres to shame”.
