La Dolce Vita in downtown Deansgrange
A dish called 'gamberetti Deansgrange' had an odd ring to it, says Lucinda O'Sullivan, but the food was so delicious at this new Italian that she thinks it will soon be 'standing-room only'
Fellini's in Deansgrange.
Twirling my fork languorously through luscious ribbons of fettucine and popping the results of my efforts into my mouth, almost caused a When Harry Met Sally moment! There's a US TV show, Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, and such establishments are hot as hell right now. We were in Fellini's, a new Italian eatery in a former Chinese takeaway.
