My review of the Gaza Restaurant, in today's Irish News: www.irishnews.com/life/food-dr...

Gaza Restaurant Review: No frills, but plenty of flavour

Despite a few missteps, Gaza delivers authentic Middle Eastern dishes with charm, character, and enough flavour to keep you coming back.

There's never a time of day, year, or time, or a state of the weather, when Another Place isn't utterly captivating.

Yes. First one is Case Histories. It's always tricky recommending things, but I'd say it's definitely worth a go.

Have you tried Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie books? I started my first one last Wednesday and I think it's terrific. Similar in some ways to Rebus, and a nice balance of dark and light.

My review of Snugborough Urban Street Food Restaurant, Letterkenny, Co DOnegal, in today's Irish News: bit.ly/3FDPjRG

The barbecue sauce on my chin shows how much I enjoyed my date with a Dirty Cow...

Sophisticated it ain’t, but Snugborough in Letterkenny is a brilliant restaurant - just make sure you go with people who already know and love you

I did okay, but I'm annoyed I didn't get Bren gun and I must say I've never thought of Douglas Adams as a sci-fi writer.

A touching moment for two Everton favourites as Duncan McKenzie and Joe Royle spot each other across the Goodison Park pitch. 💙

Both, but, if I had to choose one, There She Goes. Written and sung by an Evertonian, a band from the city, a more oblique lyric than I Guess...Play it after Z Cars, when the team's on the pitch.

Anyone can be a hero. I used to have a Geoff Nulty abdge for pity's sake! But legend should be reserved for someone very special. Calling Ian Snodin a legend drives me barmy. And then when someone is called a former legend, as if they were once a legend, but have somehow lost that status!

My review of The Magnet Bar and Restaurant, Culmore Road, Derry, in today's Irish News: bit.ly/42ZVvuI

The Magnet in Derry always attracts a crowd - but not for its food

Dominic Kearney stops for a bite at the bar/restaurant where a welcoming atmosphere is always on the menu
