PLUS: THE BEST MUFFIN RECIPE BAR NONE
We've been testing all month to find the best muffin recipe and at last, we've found it. We'll be posting it on the site this week. Forget those soggy bready muffins that fill out your tummy, this is a light recipe with an excellent crumb texture that is even better toasted the next day. And they freeze so you can do a batch in advance.

Sign up for our newsletter and we'll send a note when both these items are live on the site.

New Dining & Lifestyle Club – theGclub.ie

Georgina Campbell Guides have launched a new dining and lifestyle club that allows you to eat and stay at the best places at recessionista prices.

Over 40 of the top Dublin restaurants and a similar number of country houses, leading hotels and restaurants (many with rooms) all around Ireland are participating – including top restaurants like Thornton's, L'Ecrivain, One Pico, Bon Appetit, Town Bar & Grill, Locks and Harvey Nichols First Floor Restaurant.

Most restaurants are offering to remove the least expensive dish of each course from the bill of G Club members who dine off the à la carte menu at certain sittings; if two dine this means that you are only paying for one!

Ballymaloe House (pictured left), Castlemartyr Resort, The Clarence Hotel, Wineport Lodge, Rathsallagh House and Aghadoe Heights Hotel & Spa are just a few offering favourable deals to G Club members, such as a straightforward three nights for the price of two, or exclusive packages, typically offering G Club members an upgrade and complimentary extras such as massages, golf and discounts from dinner wine bills.

G Club members may avail of these extremely attractive preferential rates in participating restaurants and accommodation on specific days and/or sittings. Anybody can go into the website, theGclub.ie, to find out all about the club, to find out what's on offer at the time, and to join if they wish to do so.

Membership costs just €75 per annum (you'll save that easily over a meal or two) - and members stand to save hundreds of euro if they dine out as a member just once a month. For further information please visit www.thegclub.ie.
