Once our food critic could figure out where Southern Spices was, the dishes that awaited her there were superb

Is there anything more heartwarming and welcoming than steaming hot spicy Indian food on a bleak winter’s day? Indeed, it only gets better when you can enjoy excellent food at reasonable prices, more particularly at this time of year when our budgets are tight after Christmas and most people are waiting for that end-of-the-month injection into their bank accounts.
Southern Spices is a new south Indian restaurant in a large clean-cut casual kitchen-style space. It opened a few months ago in Sandyford Business Park, Co Dublin. Facing two apartment blocks that are being developed, it’s obviously proving popular already with people working and residing in the area. They had big smiles on their faces as they were coming and going during our visit.
