Our review in this month’s Food & Wine magazine was of the delectable and uber-popular Canteen, a funky, lively pop-up eatery on one of Limerick’s many beautiful Georgian streets.
Early last month, despite the snowy weather, we spent an enjoyable morning there sampling its many brunch options, with the meat-heavy fry a popular (if unsurprising choice) with my unrepentatly carniverous boyfriend, and the dangerously-monikered ‘Killer Nachos’ a new favourite for me.
Since our brunch visit last month, we have returned for one of their monthly specials, ‘Sushi-Sushi’ night, an evening of miso soup, sushi and green tea with a dollop of fiery wasabi to boot. The talented chef at the helm of Canteen is formerly of the famous Fat Duck restaurant and is also an accomplished tweeter – follow him and his team (and place your reservations!) here.
If you fancy reading a little more about this trendy little Limerick gem, pick up a copy of this month’s Food & Wine (it’s got a green cover!) The review is on our usual page 91, and while you’re at it, take a peek at the fab section on French classics, it’s got me craving a trip back to Carcassonne already!
