The recipients of the Bib Gourmand Awards have just been announced and five Irish restaurants are amongst the winners this year.
Awarded by Michelin, the Bib Gourmand Awards highlight places that offer “exceptionally good food at moderate prices”.
Restaurants must offer a three-course meal for under €40 to be eligible for the award.
The Irish food scene has never been better and with five newcomers on the list, we’re absolutely spoiled for choice.
This year’s winners include two restaurants in Dublin; Circa in Terenure and Uno Mas in Dublin 2.
