Try Rafter Dempseys pub for daytime lunches. Although its a pub, unless there's a match on telly you should be ok. Plus i think they have high chairs for toddlers...
Scrummy chicken roll things with chips - yum yum!
Enjoy Kilkenny!
Is Pordylos the place upstairs, just beside a stone alcove or archway? If so, the food was great when we ate there (a couple of years back). It was the only guacamole I've ever found in a restaurant that tastes as good as my home-made stuff.
The food is nice in Pordylos but we found it very expensive, starters and desserts average at 8.50 and main courses are around the 25 mark ... but maybe some people won't consider that too expensive!
I thought Zuni was very expensive.
I ended up just going to the restaurant in the Hibernian (a few doors dwon from Zuni) and I was very happly with it.
I guess you will have to have a rethink about your trip to Kilkenny.
You will have to spend 4 nights there instead of 2 to enable you to carry out a control test on behalf of AAM on the eateries nominated by posters: Pordylos, Langtons, Zuni and the Hibernian.
We will also, of course, expect a full report on your return!

Hi Marion - Did a return visit to Kilkenny last weekend to find that Pordylos was NOT the restaurant I was thinking of & praising. My good experience was in Fleva restaurant on High St.
