London!  But I travel over for matches and have had enough of Abrakebabras, so now seeking an alternative post-match post-pint bite.  The spice bag is arguably more Irish than Chinese.  Great bunch of lads...

Not looking for a restaurant recommendation, but a takeaway one; Which Chinese restaurant in Dublin does the best spice bag?

Whenever they have votes in Joe.ie or some such website the original from sunflower near spawell is the winner. I honestly find the quality varies from there a lot but a good fresh one is great.


Wheres that? At Orlagh shops?

Orwell shops 

That's the one.

Prawn starter and steak main. Both were lovely. Would like to be able to say it was reasonably priced but I don't think it was, and I wasn't paying.

If you like seafood then Sole on South William Street is very good. Mid to upper pricing. Nice set up, decent staff and atmosphere. I was there with a few other people and there wasn't a bad dish had by any of us. 
The Prawns and Scallops were probably the standouts.

A few places in Howth would have a similar menu at a fraction of the price.

No doubt the food here is top quality, but I couldn't justify paying those prices.

Yeah, it is expensive but it's a great part of town so that is probably a factor. The quality is really good though. 
On the subject of Howth, I was in Crabby Jo's on Saturday and it was abysmal. €30 for Scallops which were cold with bland accompaniments and my missus had the Prawn Tempura (€24) which was nearly inedible it was so greasy. I actually felt sick after it. The East Cafe below King Sitric is way better.
