Wa Café, 13 New Dock Street, Galway.
I'd been dying to go to Wa for ages. It is the sweetest little Japanese café on the docks in Galway. I had never heard anyone talk about it, so the lure was self-created after I happened upon it one day in town- It wasn't open, but I could read the menu and press my nose against the glass for a peek inside. It promised fresh sushi rolls at the bargain price of €3.
On my first visit, it was a little cold out and I needed some warming up. Forgetting Fiona's warning on its fishy-ness, I ordered Miso soup and Rice Balls for dunking and was a bit disappointed. But everything else about this little place charmed me. I've been back to sample their vegetarian sushi rolls (what I know and love) and Otsumami (Japanese tapas) (Amazing!) and left very pleased.
It's Galway's hidden jem: nice relaxed atmosphere, cool photographic art on the walls, lovely smiley server, high stools facing the street (for people-watching) and yummy juices and snacks.
When you're in Galway, go.
