"Northside enclave Stoneybatter has become a restaurant hotspot in recent years, with classic Italian at Grano and modern Chinese at Hakkahan. And this new neighborhood café is adding a zero-waste ethos to the mix. Vada was founded by Sarah Boland, who trained at Ballymaloe Cookery School in County Cork, and head chef Hannah O’Donnell, formerly of Galway favorite Kai, steers the kitchen. For weekday lunch, there could be sweetcorn fritters with green chutney or a pork meatball sub with candied jalapeños, while a weekend brunch of s’mores croissant French toast is as over-the-top and treat-yourself as it sounds. For dinner (on Friday and Saturday), focaccia comes with whipped tahini butter, mussels are Thai-style with coconut curry gazpacho, and the Middle East-inspired steak with zhoug béarnaise nods to Boland’s respect for the innovative cooking of Yotam Ottolenghi." - Aoife O'Riordain
