The Dundrum Town Centre is really a massive shopping centre with lots of shops, restaurants, a cinema, theatre and lovely courtyard with a cool fountain, music and flashing lights. Milano's is a nice place to eat. It has good food, nice waiting staff and they don't try to rush you out. On mild/warmish days you can sit outside and watch the fountain and flashing lights. I didn't get too much writing done because I was tired and I forgot to bring my earphones and couldn't shut out the background chatter of the other diners, but I think on another day it could have been a good place to write.
I took with me
1. Black biro
2. 79 c foolscap writing pad
3. Iphone (minus earphones, unfortunately)
4 The Chocolate Monster aka Pinky

Hmm, don't you think having Pinky talking to you was as big a distraction from writing as the other diners???
I love the view of the pool!

Pasta and pizza. I love to cook pasta and sample various pizzas.
Do your reports about the food they serve in your next outing spots. I love to talk about food.
Ooh Milano's!!! Fancy!!
I generally HATE Dundrum for several reasons(stuffiness, D4s, crowds, nowhere to sit down etc. etc.) but I LOVE the restaurants there.
You should try 'The Counter'(down the laneway beside Harvey Nichols. It's an incredibly good burger bar- though quite small so maybe not the best place to write..
Good point Anon, but Pinky was actually helping me with my writing and then she nipped off for a facial, an that's when the other diners started to annoy me.
It is a lovely spot. I was worried the photo wouldn't come out but I'm pleased with it. Thanks for dropping by, Kim.
Will do, Shadowthorne. You only have to ask and it will be done. I know SSQuo likes my food reviews as well. :)
Thanks for the tip Gaelgeoir, I'll be sure to check it out. I don't really fit in at Dundrum either. It took me ages to find the interesting shops - book shop and game shop hidden on the top floor. :)
Yeah I'd definitely reccomend it!
Have to say I'm not a huge fan of the Bookshop either. Eason's always feels so... shoplike to me.
I love a bookshop with a home-like feel to it!:D
