RESTAURANT 2-THORNTON'S RESTAURANT

THORNTON’S RESTAURANT
Thornton’s Restaurant is located in the heart of Dublin, overlooking St. Stephen’s Green, Thornton’s is a wonderful location for a sumptuous dining experience. The dining room is classical with circular tables dressed with crisp white linen tablecloths and napkins. The décor includes some wonderful photographs greatly enlarged.
We met with the chef and were advised to have the eight-course tasting menu. This was a really new experience with mini portions of delicacies presented on different shaped plates and dishes.






  Each one was a picture on a plate. 






Small portions of food and sauces were arranged artistically and provided a range of flavours, colour and textures to tickle the palate.






This was my main course of lamb; liver and sauces. A combination of flavours and texture.




 It is difficult to explain the menu but it was a tremendous experience.







The service was very attentive throughout the course of the meal.



This was my dessert.





This restaurant also prides itself on using locally sourced, seasonal  products.  There is obviously a strong movement in Dublin to promote good local fresh foods.
