The Yumminess of it All

The drive to Galway and the Wild Atlantic Coast was a blast. And our tummies enjoyed our stops along the way. The first stop was in Ennis for a late breakfast on the day we left. In the old part of town (I love that when you say old about these towns it really is OLD), is the Cafe Aroma. Great choice. Quirky fun with nice feel about the place. Food was seriously good too!

The Husband’s Eggs Benedict. As good as it was pretty.
I had a mini full Irish breakfast. Yep, that’s a mini.
Salmon and egg thingy that the Cousin and the Brother had

Our dinner that night in Galway was at the The Quays Pub and Restaurant. Live music, really old building, fun atmosphere! The drawback to it was that the lighting was awful for photos, so no pictures from there. Highly recommend the beef and Guinness stew though.

Breakfast the next morning was at Pascal Coffee House. Oh Lordy…I can’t say enough good things about this place. The coffee, the tea, the food. Heaven.

Meat Pancakes for the Brother
The Cousin had the Pancake Benedict 🙂
I had Lemon Curd and Blueberry Pancakes. Happy happy joy joy.
The Husband had eggs, avocado and chorizo.

Saturday night the decision was to have fish and chips. We asked Ray (our tour guide) for his recommendation. He said that he thought that Hooked had the best in town. He did not lead us astray. I have not willingly eaten fish in many decades, but I have made it my mission to get over it. This dinner was an excellent start on that task-

Fresh haddock. Thin, simple coating. Expertly cooked.
All gone! And I would eat it again.

We (I) also ate way too much bread, chai teas and other delicious things! Next weekend is a trip to Cork…looking forward to it.
