Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver is openening his first restaurant in Ireland with a location of his chain Jamie's Italian at Dundrum Town Centre in Dublin. The 4,500 sq ft, Italian-themed restaurant will open in the Autumn.
According to Irish Independent, Jamie Oliver described the project as "a dream come true for me because it's a city I've loved for many years.'' He said the restaurant would be about affordable and good food.
Work is underway to indentify Irish food suppliers and his international operations chef Marcos Georgiou has already begun visiting farms.

"We'll be sourcing loads of wonderful local produce to give the place a really special feel and I can't wait for us to be open," Mr. Oliver said.
Although, eager Dubliners could get a sneak peek at Taste of Dublin on June 14th where Jamie Oliver has launched the event!
There are 30-odd locations of Jamie's Italian in the UK, Sydney and Dubai.
And, what is your favourite place to eat in Dublin?
I adore Jamie Oliver! Went to see him at Iveagh Gardens in Dublin. It was fantastic despite the weather! I cannot wait till the restaurant opens. By the way, have you heard about his food revolution?
