Dublin's Chapter One restaurant earns Michelin star

Michelin Guide Great Britain and Ireland 2007 lists four Dublin restaurants. The newest is Chapter One, with one Michelin star.

Seasonal menus at Chapter One combine classical French and authentic Irish dishes made with locally grown organic and artisan produce. Fine art and granite walls decorate the comfortable but luxurious dining room.

Located in the former Jameson Whiskey family home, Chapter One occupies the basement of the Dublin Writers Museum, next to the Municipal Gallery on Parnell Square North, a five-minute walk from Dublin City Centre and Temple Bar.
