For years I wanted to make a ‘Best Burger in Dublin’ blog, but I changed my mind and have started a blog called ‘The Dublin Falafel Hunt’. It follows my search for the tastiest falafel in Dublin.
Out of a list of about 20 cafes/restaurants I’ve visited 7 so far and the one that stood out for me was from Ephesus, Capel Street, Dublin: The falafel (above) was really fresh, packed with flavour and had lots of different ingredients. Complimented by tasty sauces and made freshly in the shop, I’ve yet to find one that beats it…

FIGHT!

What you may need to know

1. This teaser is short, and pretty messed up. We like it.

2. It’s the first film in nine years by Jonathan Glazer, who did Sexy Beast (2000).

3. His follow-up, Birth (2004), got a bit of a kicking, hence the nine year break. It’s worth a gander.

4. Oh, he made the GREATEST GUINNESS AD OF THEM ALL to boot.

5. Scarlett Johansson In Scotland. That is all.

6. Reviews have been mixed, to say the least.

7. Best YouTube comment: ‘i have the weirdest boner right now’.

After learning that 5,500 shelter dogs are put down every day in the United States, artist Mark Barone decided to paint 5,500 portraits of actual shelter dogs, recording their names and the dates they were killed.

Two years into the project, Barone has completed over 3,500 portraits for his ‘memorial museum’, passing on all donations to save and re-home other strays.
