With the optimism that every New Year brings, we are going to take adventurous look at our monthly seasonal menu of fish, vegetarian and meats dishes. We will be looking at various breeds and cuts of meat, both traditional and some exciting continental cuts.

We hope these specials will give a taste of the superb resources we have all around us in Ireland and would be delighted if you would take one of the “Good Food Ireland” touring maps which gives details of fellow members.
