On a wintery midweek night in a shut-up village, Liath feels like the only restaurant with the lights on. It’s like opening the small double door on a post-apocalyptic fine dining speakeasy. It’s finished with gold leaf “that’s just doin’ bloody nothin’” as Grey explains, cheerfully abusing the fine dining trope. Drinks like these make this place the only other restaurant on the island giving Aimsir a run for its non-alcoholic money. Dinner for two with one non-alcoholic drink pairing, filtered water and house made juice came to €243Verdict: Exquisite cooking that puts the fun in fine dining.
