"Christy Hughes immigrated the U.S. on March 8, 1974 — coincidentally the same day The Dubliner opened its doors to the public — and became the restaurant’s first-ever general manager soon after. He now owns the Irish Inn at Glen Echo and Lahinch Tavern and Grill in Potomac, Md., and also opened Ireland’s Four Provinces in Falls Church before selling it to yet another Dubliner alum." - Dayana Sarkisova
