1. The gayest thing about your restaurant?

We refused to serve ’no’ voters during the marriage referendum campaign.

Will Ferrell, David Bowie, Benicio del Toro, Judi Dench, and Amy Winehouse.

3. Your favourite place to eat, other than your own, in Dublin?

I spend most of my free time (and wages) in Coppinger Row.

Great food and ambience every time.

4. If you weren’t a restaurateur what would you be doing?

Something that might actually make me some money!

5. What/Who or Where is rocking your world in restaurants right now?

Every independent cafe owner brave enough to open up against the giant coffee houses.

6. What does the future hold for dining?

Menus supporting sustainable ingredients and reducing the massive food waste.
