Odessa Restaurant is countering the January doldrums with pocket-friendly prices.

This stalwart of affordable Dublin dining has introduced a menu of tasty comforting main courses for a tenner. And with lamb tagine, Guinness and beef stew, and smoked fish pie on offer, no one is going to go hungry. The offer is available every evening except Saturday, and comes on foot of the success of its equally inviting fiver starters range (calamari, mushrooms on toast, chorizo and chickpeas). And to wash it all down, a bottle of house wine can be had for €16. More of this please!
