Our Latest Great Place to Eat - Corfu Greek Restaurant
Thursday 05 January 2012
The sight of two olive trees and a perky canopy blowing in the wind tunnel that was Parliament Street, running up from the River Liffey to Dublin Castle, on a cold winter evening proved very attractive as we dashed in search of sustenance. It was early evening and Corfu had that easy laid back feel as the men of the house were sitting at a table chatting – the sort of thing you see in sun drenched Aegean tavernas mid afternoon. We were greeted warmly and one of the men who, sitting us beside the window, handed us the menus, and said laughingly “don’t criticize the menu – that’s the chef sitting there.” The room is long and narrow with white walls ‘broken’ and ‘ancient’ feature rustic brick insets, simple wooden tables, ladderback chairs, red paper napkins and a couple of blackboards, and of course Greek music to lift the spirits. The chef, telling us he was Greek, took himself off to the kitchen, and we dived into the menu.
