Review by Leslie WilliamsL’Ecrivain, 109a Lower Baggot Street, Dublin 2, 01 6611919, www.lecrivain.comChoosing a restaurant to review every week is always a bit of a dilemma. L’Écrivain is deservedly considered a classic by now – it opened in 1990 and is celebrating 28 years in business, a seriously impressive run. It is worth noting by the way that l’Ecrivain is open on Mondays, almost everywhere else of note is closed. Seared perfectly pink Magret Duck (€38) breast with a croquette from the confit leg plus baby leeks and sweet Cévenne onions. The word classic and all the positive connotations of that word tell you all you need to know.
