So, in case you hadn’t noticed and are looking for a new dining experience or two, here’s the lowdown.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Since Rocky from the Arts Centre’s D’Lush opened his new offering (the name’s the same!) opposite Bank of Ireland the queues haven’t stopped. The offering is pretty much the same as in Cornmarket with perhaps a little more emphasis on brunch. Big flavours and healthy balanced meals are the order of the day and allergies, gluten free, non dairy and vegan diets are all amply catered for. My lunch was Mexican chicken, feta, beetroot, chorizo, seeds, smoked salsa and minted yoghurt salad…… divine ![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”10463″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_outline” border_color=”green”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”10465″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_outline” border_color=”green”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Right next door is Ramen, Wexford’s latest Asian Street Food offering. Ramen is a chain so, while we don’t have the individuality of a D’Lush, the offering is still very strong on health, flavour and value. Everything’s made to order so tweaking a recipe to suit individual taste and need is no problem. Offerings include noodle dishes, wok dishes and curries and you can tell from the big containers of freshly prepped vegetables that form the heart of the cuisine that they pack a nutritional punch. I had the pad Thai with tofu and loved it.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Further down almost at the Quay is Button and Spoon, recently opened sibling to its very successful and stylish sister restaurant in Bridgetown. Style is the byword here too with the delightfully countrified interior. It’s certainly not style over substance however with a well crafted menu offering everything from breakfasts to die for to inventive soups to the most decadent cakes and desserts (maybe not for every day!). I chose the lentil Dahl and rice. The tomato based Dahl was expertly spiced, a delicious lunch.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”10466″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_outline” border_color=”green”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We’re so well served in Wexford by a marvelous range of daytime eateries and, if these three are anything to go by, food which offers great taste as well as all the benefits of wholesome, natural ingredients certainly isn’t too much to ask for![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
