Even more mayhem regarding Limerick

Is the other one called the Wild Geese? Now that was folksy.

In fairness, hes an irritating cunt so they probably put strychnine in it

I haven’t been in a few years, I’m hoping the menu is a little bit more exciting than the sample one online.

They used to do a savage pork board, and the scallops in a salted brown bread crumb was one of the best starters I’ve ever had.

The wild geese has been up for sale with a while. I ate in the blue door last year and it was terrible but I’m told it’s more often good than it is bad.

Interested to know what you consider Limericks top restaurant since you wrote off 1826?

Blue door is fine to bring your parents, I was always fond of the wild geese as well, it was a good restaurant years ago when there was little else

In my opinion it’s not even close, 1826 is the best but that speaks of a lack of real quality

I didn’t write it off, I just said I don’t think it’s the best in limerick. I ate there and I thought it was good but I wouldn’t rush back. They were small portions and despite that I was blown up for the night after it, indicating there was something not ā€˜natural’ shall we say in it. The Adare Manor for one has better food than it the time I ate there, not that I’d go back there regularly either.

Ive never eaten in the Manor in fairness, forgot about that

What are you suggesting they gave you in 1826 though? I can’t get my head around what that’s about

MSG

I’m not suggesting anything untoward. I was bloated like a pig for hours after it and ate fuck all compared to what I normally do.

I would put the mustard seed in Ballingarry ahead of 1862 also. Look it’s subjective don’t worry too much about it.

The East Room in UL is supposed to be very good fine dining. Although it just seems a really odd location.

Excellent (according to my parents)

This woman seems a thoroughly alright sort from what I heard over the years

@EstebanSexface Esta will tell you all about her…

I was in playschoold with Curley and then spent every summer in her camps. She took us to Fota, Dublin zoo, Ballycotton. When I got older then you had to go and look after the younger ones.

Weston/Prospect and the Hyde road got an absolute gem in Curley.

A saint of a woman

I met her in my 30s and she still knew who I was, 20 years after I last met her. She had a big hug. Jaysus I’m emotional
