We enjoyed a Chinese meal in Killarney.
My uncle, who was travelling with us, picked where he wanted us to go that night.
I tend to stick with the local regional cuisine when I only have a week in a country I haven’t visited before, so I was dragging my heels a bit. I often have a list of local dishes or ingredients I want to try during my trip. We only had 6 nights in Ireland. 2 in Dublin, 1 near Waterford, 2 in Killarney and 1 near Shannon.
We ended up having a really nice Chinese meal. In a way, his choosing that Chinese meal made me think about checking more local Chinese food when I travel.
Not to seek out something necessary authentically Szechuan or the perfect soup dumplings, but to try the more popular dishes in the region at that restaurant, or Chinese dishes I haven’t seen in Canada.
I only found out about Irish Spice Bags around 3 months ago. It’s a novelty, one I would seek out if I was visiting.
