What would you expect from a rubby man?
You’d fit in well with your square head.
King John was canonized unbeknownst to us.
Nice one four eyes.
The Chicken Hut and Luigi’s
Limerick, Limerick, Limerick
Every hotel west of raheen gives vol au vonts as a delicacy at a wedding. The woodlands are famous for them
Was disappointed I didn’t make it there for Christmas Eve pint in '19. Twas a little Christmas Eve tradition of mine to have a few pints there in the afternoon/early evening
There’s no fear of Flannerys. No debts and a big bank balance I’d imagine. There won’t be much room for social distancing in there though
Fricassee of chicken is one name for it.
Something Bouche is another.
Then waitress comes around and asks do you want the salad or the vol au vent, shattering any illusions of grandeur
I had started a lovely little of tradition of going there a couple of times midweek, sometimes at lunch, sometimes in the evening. A dacent spot for a few quiet pints.
Flicking through a few of these Working Lives books this evening. Basically just a collection of interviews done with various west limerick auld stocks, talking about their lives. Pure harmless stuff but great reading.
Any builders in there
Few who went to England on the buildings and my own grandfather is in it. He was a carpenter/builder.
Hes hamming it up there
Over the top
Like something a Cork fella would do
Has anyone every bought a Milk Stout, I’d say they’re disgusting.
Stevie knows his market
Hamming up the Limerick thing is his stock in trade, in a saturated market he has to stand out somewhere and for something, he’s absolutely busted his balls throughout this lockdown or whatever you want to call it, out delivering non stop, brewing occasionally and working on his two premises, there’s nothing he can’t do with his hands,
And a terribly nice fella, said that the pub trade us about 75% of his business so he’s suffering, good luck to him
