Jeanne, I know. It was really lovely, and much more manageable as you say.

OMG – must have that pizza ice cream and the crusted lamb chop!! Sounds excellent and I can imagine that a more compact festival might be more manageable.

Thanks George!

I know, I am. I haven’t been on any holidays this year (well, outside of Ireland anyway – doesn’t count!), so, I thought I should do something nice.

Great photography Niamh!!
I wish I could have gone, I’m guessing there was a fabulous atmosphere, not to even mention the glorious food. You’re lucky to have been to this and the London festival ;)

Hello! Yes, bigger portions but I think it was a *little* more expensive with the euro conversion and all that. About €8 on average per main course. Fantastic food though!

Phenomenal! No wonder you’re so pleased, with all that amazing food on offer. Is it my eyes at 11pm or do the portions look a lot larger than the Taste of London ones??

Hi Helen! I trhinkmthey were a little bigger alright, I still managed to have alot of them! The black pudding was superb. I brought lots back with me and have been eating it since. Just for lunch now, in fact :-)

Matt, the food was great, really superb. Pork Belly is fantastic, one of my favourites too, I can never resist it!

Lizzie, I did :-) Indulgent me. They were both good in their own way, hard to pick a favourite. I did more at Taste of London but enjoyed the food more generally at Taste of Cork . Thanks so much for the link!

Farida – it was great fun! Thanks. Oh, the breads, and the cheeses, all of it was just delicious.

Gosh – did you go to both London and Cork Taste festivals? Lucky you! Was there a favourite, or were they both different in their own right?

I’ve linked your blog on mine, I hope you don’t mind :)

WOW – some really great looking food, especially considering what a large event this is. I love the look of the pork belly and white bean soup.. but then pork belly is one of my favorite things to eat.

Yay – Taste of Cork! Is it me or do the portions seem bigger than taste of London? That black pudding sarnie looks bloomin’ gorgeous!
