Gourmet gossip
Perry’s Restaurant, at the Occidental Hotel, has had a change of chef, and a newlook menu has been proving so popular with the clientele that it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a seat, particularly at lunch times. Die menu now leans towards nouvelle cuisine, and first impressions are of a high standard of food and presentation. Julie Adams, one half of the successful Leinster
House partnership, has expanded her interests into a lunch restaurant in Riccarton. The Birdcage, a storefront restaurant in the new Straven Road development, looks classy and comfortable and finally brings a touch of civilised lunching to this previously arid area. If Julie brings the same flair to lunches as she does to evening dining, the Birdcage is bound to be a winner.
