It’s not just about the Ulster Fry. But that is a large part of it.
Mac 'n' Cheese Nugget Burgers at Le Coop
Le Coop entices you in promising some delicious juicy chicken, and trust me the rotisserie chicken delivers. However, there's also a lot of joy to be found in their Mac 'n' Cheese burger, and Le Coqtails, topped with mischievous garnishes like glazed bacon and popping candy. You might say it's clucking fabulous.
Wood fired ribs at John Henry's
JH specialises in South American style slow cooked meats, including roast chicken, pulled pork and bourbon beef. JH is still a pretty new kid on the block, battling off the likes of a certain famous Mexican neighbour...
Burritos at Boojum
Boojum doesn't even need an introduction. In fact, people went dressed as little Boojums on Halloween this year. They have outlets in Belfast, Dublin and Galway, where they serve up their tasty Mexican fare. It's essentially a burrito bar where you choose between the form (wrap/taco/bowl), the filling (meats/beans/rice) and the extras (sour cream/salsa/guac). So many tasty combinations. So little stomach space.
Piri piri prawns at Made in Belfast
As you might of guessed from the name, Made in Belfast specialise in "Irish cuisine" - but they spice it up a bit. Think local potted crab with Guinness wheaten bread, Irish venison pie with blue cheese butter, and Belfast baps with a fried Irish duck egg (I know, what?!)
