Le Petit Renard Wine Bar, Kimmage

Cin cin, we are truly living in the era of the wine bars, with more cropping up week on week and we are absolutely here for it. From the people who brought us the laminated wonders of the Arty Baker empire, the married couple French baker Romain Tessier and Canadian bizwiz Suzanne Hodgkinson have joined forces once again to open a wine and tapas bar, Le Petit Renard also known as LPR. With a name like Le Petit Renard which translates as The Little Fox , you can be sure they are serving up the finest of French wine by either the bottle or the glass, and while it might say tapas on the description, these small-plates are absolutely French-inspired.

Nailing the death knell into small plates, Dublin wine bar All Good Wine Bar are hosting a RIP party for those contentious little plates. Black attire is optional ⁠with chef James Bernard of Chapter One and Restaurant Gordon Ramsey fame to whip up a carvery-style dinner next Sunday - truly the antithesis of small plates. ⁠The funeral takes place on Sunday 12th of May, with two seatings, first seating at 6:30pm and the second at 8:30 pm - tickets are €50 and you can DM @allgoodwinebar to reserve a spot
