I have four bookings for my Saturday 13 February underground restaurant and now the menu is beginning to take shape.
It will be a three-course (minimum) meal – and the choice will be vegetarian or non-vegetarian. Everything, including bread, will be homemade.
The menu is not set in stone yet but the main courses may be Boeuf Bourguignon; and vegetarian chilli with guacamole and tacos.
The idea is to have really good food – not necessarily really out there food.
I will have at least one starter – at the moment I’m thinking of chicken liver pate or hummous with homemade oatcakes.
Or perhaps mini croque monseurs with green salad – inspired by Meryl Streep in ‘It’s complicated’.
The main course will be followed by cheese and several desserts.
I may also have some ‘amuse bouche’ at the beginning and various little cookies at the end.
And there’ll be a selection of different breads.

I can cater for up to 20 and it will be €25 a head – bring your own wine or whatever you like to drink.

If you’re interested, email sokedit@eircom.net and I’ll give you any other information you need.

Well I’m finally doing it – holding an underground restaurant in my home. I live in Rathfarnham, Dublin.

The concept is good food, all homemade, relaxed atmosphere and reasonable prices.

There will be at least three courses and I can fit 20 people. I have set the price at €25 – bring your own wine. Filtered water supplied.

I can fit 20 people and you can book in advance by emailing me at sokedit@eircom.net

Each course will have vegetarian options.

If you need any more info at this stage, please leave a comment or email me.

Cheers!
