For something a bit different, go to Ireland's 84000 people stadium for our national sports. It has an excellent museum and tour where you will even get to try the sports. If you see people walking around in jerseys you don't recognise, its likely these are county jerseys, each county has a jersey and the sport is 100% amateur, yet the players on the county team have sports star status in Ireland. Matches are played on Sundays and extremely popular.

Dinner Hakkahan Chinese or Grano (Italian) restaurants on Manor Street are my favorites. Its very difficult to get a booking for either so make sure to call in advance/look at open table.
