Best Dublin Day OutI love getting the train out to Howth with my boyfriend, or going for a walk around Sandymount Strand, and I love getting Bujo on a Sunday. Best RestaurantBahay in Blackpitts. Richie was my sous chef in Clanbrassil House, so he and Alex started Bahay around the same time we opened Mae. Richie’s food is incredible. It’s really interesting because no one else is doing flavours like it and that’s why I love going.

I was seven years old when Definitely Maybe was released. When you hear exciting new music when you're a kid, it has a deep and lasting affect. While I was too young to live the lifestyle of older Oasis fans at the time, their music defines the decade I grew up in. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd get to see Liam Gallagher play in my hometown, and that sentiment can be felt strongly throughout the stadium here tonight.
