Established in 1986, An Leath Phingin serves Italian food of the highest calibre. Stained glass, carved wood, and muted lighting all combine to give a uniquely Irish and Italian romantic atmosphere. The two floors of this old stone townhouse are used very effectively to provide intimate dining without crowding. An Leath Phingin centres the menu around its oak fired stone oven. A huge variety of barbecued meats and pizzas are featured. They even smoke their own tuna and wild salmon. The marinated skewered lamb and vegetables, smoked salmon risotto, and home-made pork sausages are particularly recommended. Superb fresh pasta is made on the premises as well. There is an extensive and well-priced wine list featuring many Italian labels.
Advantages: Beautiful, unspoilt countryside. Captivating. Disadvantages: You won't want to come home!!!

The town itself offers an extensive range of restaurants, entertainment and traditional Irish pubs. I would highly recommend 'Wilde Oscars' a bohemian, welcoming and stylish restaurant located in the centre of the town. A meal for two...

Advantages: Beautiful scenery, pleasant town, cheap hostel Disadvantages: Somewhat touristy
...…The likes you’ve never known, of Christmas in Killarney…” Ahh… doesn’t that remind you of sitting around the Christmas tree, opening your presents and gorging on sweets while Mum plays her old Bing Crosby records? (Or is it just me…? :)
Okay, so it wasn’t actually Christmas – closer to summertime really – when we arrived in Killarney, a charming little town in the heart of County Kerry in the south of the Republic of Ireland. Having just spent a couple of days in Dublin and Cork, Killarney was quite literally a breath of fresh air. Though still somewhat touristy, the town is surrounded by spectacularly picturesque scenery: rolling hills, vast lakes and dense forests as well as an array of interesting historical monuments.
We arrived in the early afternoon and made our way...
