There are always obscure historical connections to be found, even among the oldest ruin in Ireland.
Eileen Taylor, author of the 'Irish Pub Guide' contributes our pub reviews, visiting renowned establishments. Susan Causin and Elsie Dillard, are the authors of the highly regarded, and continually updated 'Bed and Breakfast Ireland'. They review the very best tourist accommodations on offer. Speaking of breakfast - in the recipe section we present the finest selection of traditional Irish dishes anywhere on the Net, ranging from soda bread and Irish stew to Irish coffee. These recipes are given a personal spin by using the author's reminiscences of childhood in Ireland to illustrate the appeal of such dishes.
