3 Best Day Trips from Dublin to Belfast, Dromoland Castle, County Clare, and County Wicklow | Condé Nast Traveler

"Views of the Botanical Gardens, Ulster Museum, and Methodist College lead the way to this recently redone University Quarter spot, which is set in what was once Queen’s University’s common room. Part of the Michael Deane restaurant group, and under the direction of Chef Chris Fearon (who garnered some fame from his award-winning turn on the “Great British Menu” TV show), the eatery draws a steady (and occasionally boisterous) foodie crowd for its Modern British cuisine crafted with Northern Irish ingredients and a slight Asian flair: Think whiskey maple-glazed salmon with miso-charred greens, crispy beef spring rolls, and Irish duck breast with parmesan gnocchi, rounded out with wild honey panna cotta. And, yes—you'll want to book in advance." - Sandra Ramani
