Britons are increasingly fond of alfresco eating, despite our uncertain weather.
The Guardian publishes a supplement called “The Great Outdoors: Food and Drink” which names Rain City Restaurant in Belfast as the UK’s top alfresco dining experience.
The supplement notes that alfresco dining has its drawbacks – as well as poor weather, diners can be delayed by poor service or puffed at by smokers exiled to the street.
