"Opened in 1995 by husband and wife team Claudio and Maureen Antonucci, La Sosta has been delighting local diners with its delicious Italian cuisine for over two decades. Inspired by the culinary traditions of Claudio’s native Abruzzo with a distinctly modern twist, La Sosta’s menu features standout dishes like the risotto starter with mascarpone and red cabbage and the seabream main with roasted fennel, olives, cockles and thyme. With indulgent treats like traditional homemade tiramisu and hot chocolate pudding with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce to finish, diners with a sweet tooth will want to save room for dessert."
"Central yet tucked away in a small, out-of-the-way alley, La Sosta is a family-owned Italian restaurant that is worth a little extra effort to find. Depending on where you request to be seated, you might be able to dine with a direct view over the river."

"The lady at the front desk is very patient. My English is not very good. I blame Bei Ai’s dialect for being too heavy. The cards are called keizi. The breakfast in the hotel is great, the breakfast of absolute conscience is much better than in the country, my sister offers you not a cup of coffee, but a pot"
"Widely known as Northern Ireland’s premier jazz club, Bennigans Bar is a young and vibrant musician-owned venue bar with a broad range of world-class entertainment on every night. See its popular Saturday afternoon jazz session with local music legend Gay McIntyre and the John Leighton Trio every week at 5.30pm (admission £5). Often described as a cultural gem of the city, the site has a fantastic history and played its part in the mass emigration of the Irish to America in the late 1800s."
