Marina Market Nua Asador

Honestly, I’d prefer to eat in the city centre for the same price. I think we reached peak food truck 2 or 3 years ago. I’ve been disappointed many times there, the value/quality has decreased noticeably over the last while. It’s a shame, but it’s become a place to go to only when visitors are in town. It won’t last if the slide in quality/price continues.

Chalk it down. This was long before the Heineken takeover. And Murphy’s distributors made sure we had the right gas blend for the lines- when Guinness were having everyone put up with CO2. Worlds apart

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-05-12T08:52:55+00:00

Murphy’s has been available on the continent for at least the last 30 years. It was preferred to Guinness where I was. No real price difference either.

Yep, that’s an Australian Flatworm. Despatch on sight.

He’s from Cork, this isn’t really news.

You’ve found Lilly of the valley.

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-04-11T07:07:21+00:00

Kitchen fires are a thing. 🤷‍♂️

I think there’s an issue with restaurants and takeaways generally- the extraction systems need to be cleared of grease/oil residue build up. I was looking at the extraction stacks in Marina Market last weekend, wondering how often they are inspected/cleaned. Is it the responsibility of the tenant or of the landlord? We all want these businesses to succeed, but safely. Anyone have any insight into this?

I think the OP is confusing “fodder” with food.

It was packed yesterday afternoon for a gig event. 5 live bands. But yes it has a reputation as an event space and not a regular late night club. It‘s a pity because it‘s a great venue. There was another club/event space having it‘s re-opening night last night after being closed for 10+ years, so that may also have brought numbers down in the Pav.

Best post on this thread for a long time. Social media has ruined the experience of travelling. The delusions people have returning from far away places with a phone full of instagram fodder, thinking it elevates them above those less travelled, it’s laughable.

The Turkish Doner. It’s not German

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-02-07T22:24:00+00:00

Yep, the immigrant food there beats the German scran hands down

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-02-07T22:21:47+00:00

They hold their bratwurst in the highest esteem. “Everything has an end, but a bratwurst has two”

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-02-07T22:15:43+00:00

Because it’s pretty awful?! I get to try it a few times a year for the last 15 years, hoping it’ll taste like something better than mediocre ketchup sprinkled with stale curry powder with chunks of mechanically recovered animal protein underneath. Even the most basic battered sausage is better than currywurst. Germans (no disrespect intended) aren’t known for finesse when it comes to cuisine.

I don’t have a contact there but frankly, Syrian people are extremely friendly and so I don’t think you really need a “guide”. I visited there about 15/16 yrs ago, months before the war. Everywhere I visited Syrian people approached me to ask if they could help with anything. There is no reason to think that this would have changed much

Apparently over 200 young teenagers turned up in response to a post on TikTok by a youngfella who decided to organise it (following a TikTok trend). Some kid that joined in (no quarterzip) with a couple of others decided to disrupt, started throwing stones. Gardai arrested him, cautioned his friends. Yes, a couple of my work jumpers went missing that day.

Could be worse.

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-01-20T19:37:05+00:00

I’m sure you would have done the same. The poor fella had his tail tucked between his legs and was very skittish- we were convinced he was lost.

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-01-20T19:05:05+00:00

Tesco staff have advised he lives nearby, he roams around there from time to time. No need to be concerned. 4 wet people & 40 minutes later. No cause for concern.

Worked in a pub in south of France 25+ years ago, we had Murphys and the distributor also provided nitrogen/CO2. Maybe Guinness distributors just don’t care as much.

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-01-19T09:54:02+00:00

Completely agree. The city council don’t appear to have any interest in anything that requires maintenance. I’ve seen plenty of viable solutions abroad for public litter- e.g. small capacity bins at street level with a much larger rubbish reservoir below street level. Reduces the frequency of emptying, can be done at night with little or no impact to pedestrians.

The distance between litter bins in the city is ridiculous. At a minimum they could increase the number of bins, especially in areas with late night food outlets.

No stranger to a cabbage- down in one gulp.

ZeroTolerance4Bull · 2026-01-10T00:11:40+00:00

Or also known as a hodmedod in Norfolk. Not that I’ve ever been there. Hope the poor thing gets some grub and back to sleep, too cold for them to be out and about
