KOI JAPANESE RESTAURANT AT ST. CRONAN’S HOUSE IN BRAY COUNTY WICKLOW
I very much like the building and the blue.
I really was hoping that restaurants would fully open at the beginning of July but there is now speculation in the newspapers that the reopenings will be delayed until August which could be a problem as my city visits programme was due to begin in the second week of July.
Years ago I worked for KAO, a huge Japanese multi-national, and at a distance I thought the sign on the building was KAO rather than KOI. I had the good fortune to visit Japan and really liked the food however I have never found a Japanese restaurant in Dublin that comes close to any that I visited in Japan mainly because many of them are nothing more than a Chinese restaurant offering sushi. I should mention that I have yet to visit KOI in Bray but I will give it a try later in the year if everything goes to plan..
Detached five-bay two-storey former presbytery, built 1826 but was extended and remodelled in the later 19th century. The building was used as a private house from 1963 until 1980 when it was converted to St Cronan’s Vocational School, and since 1998 it has been in use as Bray urban district council municipal offices until it became the home of a Japanese restaurant.
THE ASIA MARKET ON DRURY STREET IS MUCH BIGGER INSIDE THAN OUTSIDE
The Asia Market is dimensionally transcendental, meaning it’s bigger on the inside than the outside. The interior exists in a different, relative dimension to the exterior.
I first visited the Asia Market in 1981 after returning from working in California and not long after spending time in Korea and Japan and I still visit on a regular basis.
The Asia Market is the destination for Asian Food in Ireland. They are one of the largest Asian food suppliers of fresh, frozen, dried and canned goods to the restaurant, catering and retail trade in Ireland since 1981. They stock Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Malaysian, Korean, Philippine, Mediterranean and Western food ingredients including kitchen and household utensils at very competitive prices.
They have everything you need to cook and prepare authentic Asian meals.
