Food and Culture
Circus Of The Vegetables
Cirque de Légume perform as part of the Temple Bar Summer Sensational – a more creative use of vegetables I have not seen!
Tea’s Up
A lovely evening was had at the first Dublin Tea Up: lots of tea, lots of chat and an excuse to make some lemon cake with redcurrants
A Time To Bloom
If it was real Irish food and drink you were after, then Bloom in the Park was the place to be, with boxty to be made, poitín to be drunk and much else besides
Putting The Ham In Sandwich
A ham sandwich from Denny – an Irish tradition between two slices of bread. This year’s Bloom in the Park festival is just one of the many places to enjoy same.
Spud Sunday: Soup For Thought
A hearty bowl of curried potato and cauliflower soup, inspired by Gorta’s SoupForLife campaign.
Spud Sunday: In Handel’s Day
George Frideric Handel, saturated fat, the war on carbs and musically-shaped duchesse potatoes – we’ve got it all here…
Paddy’s Day Food Parade
The Paddy’s Day Food Parade is here, jam-packed with potatoes, soda bread, beef and Guinness and lots more Irish and not-so-Irish food with which to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.
Whiskey Business
Ah, hot whiskeys. They were serving them up by the dozen at the Temple Bar Trad Fest launch and I was happy to imbibe.
