Known for his Italian dishes, Jamie Oliver is trying his hand at something more Irish.

  Jamie Oliver has just launched his latest venture Chequer Lane on Exchequer Street, a restaurant that celebrates Irish produce specifically. It opened on Tuesday 11th October, showcasing a menu that aims to encompass Irish nostalgia through food. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjkn5dwshCi/ The menu will celebrate the best of great Irish produce, changing throughout the year to reflect the seasons. From Carlingford Lough fresh oysters to Gilligan’s Farm aged beef, cooked on a robata grill; the ingredients will be the stars of the show. Weekend menus will feature a selection of Jamie's famous roasts with all the trimmings. https://www.instagram.com/p/CjlMZ9nskR2/   Chequer Lane by Jamie Oliver has the capacity for up to 102 diners, with a more intimate space downstairs for private parties. With original brickwork and wooden floors, the restaurant has a warm and cosy feel. The walls further aim to celebrate all things Ireland as they are adorned with Irish artwork; Dublin-based artist Seán Hillen features prominently. Jamie Oliver says of his new restaurant:

“Chequer Lane is a place for all occasions! From long summer evenings to cosy winter nights, decadent lunches to celebrations – we want you to make memories with us. The menu is packed to the brim with exciting, satisfying dishes I just know you're going to fall in love with.”
