Where are you going? And if you are staying home what are you cooking?

I did get this info:

Live Irish music; possibly step dancers; bartenders that make shamrocks in your Guinness; a limited traditional Irish menu as well as an increased pub menu will be available. Open until 2 AM. For reservations call 201-626-6660.

Joseph’s Restaurant, 2111 Bremen Ave, Egg Harbor City, will be transformed into an Irish pub featuring corn beef and cabbage; potato crusted salmon and other Irish favorites. For information and reservations call 609-965-2111.

I'm staying in.

Starting with a hunk of Grana Padano and some La Sala Chianti Classico

Homemade Lasagna, broccoli rabe sauteed with olive oil and bread crumbs, then spicy calamari. Nice espresso and sambuca to finish.

I never was one for Irish fare. :biggrin:

I think I'll head down to the local bar - Sheridan's Lodge in Andover. The emphasis is definitely going to be on the Guiness and not the food :smile: I don't think I'll be feeling too well the next day :biggrin::biggrin:

Cheers

I want food and I want it now

My Irish grandmother could boil the bejeezus out of anything, but you could always taste the love.

My wife can cook like a mad woman - she makes the corned beef with an orange marmalade glaze and roasted glazed sweet potatos. Cabbage (lots of salt and pepper) and well boiled potatos (boil them, drain and then put back on the heat low to evap out the last bits of the boiling water) with lots of butter. Homemade warm buttermilk Irish soda bread (the trick is to soak the raisins in hot water first and to mix the golden and regular raisins) with a glob of melting butter and maybe a bit of jam.

Oh yeah, and some Guinness. And Harp. And Black Bush (to cut the butter and thin the blood).

I only want this once a year, but I do want it.

(Next time, I will try not to speak so parenthetically)

"There are people who strictly deprive themselves of each and every eatable, drinkable, and smokable which has in any way acquired a shady reputation. They pay this price for health. And health is all they get for it. How strange it is. It is like paying out your whole fortune for a cow that has gone dry." - Mark Twain

We're planning on steaming corned beef and cabbage; or we might just eat some dog food, it's a toss up.
