📸✨Step back in time with a visit to thepalacebardublin, one of Dublin's iconic establishments nestled in the heart of Temple Bar! 🇮🇪🍺

Established in 1823, The Palace Bar is not just a pub, but a treasure trove of Irish history and culture. 📚🍀 Over the years, it has played host to renowned writers, poets, journalists, and locals alike. It was a favorite watering hole of the late Irish Times editor, R.M. Smyllie, who held court in what's now famously known as the "Whiskey Palace". 🖋️🥃

We recommend you try the 'Redbreast 12 Year Old', a smooth, spicy, and wonderfully complex Irish Whiskey - truly an embodiment of the rich history that this bar holds.🥃👌redbreastirishwhiskey

Immerse yourself in a timeless atmosphere while enjoying a delightful dram at The Palace Bar, and make your own mark in its illustrious story! ✍️🌟

Hello. My new address is ashfordcastle. 🏰👑🐕 Please direct all correspondence there. An absolutely beautiful bedroom built in 1715. I loved all the details from the wallpaper to the carvings on the frames and drawers. Felt like a queen. Lots more in my IG story. Also, go Niners! I’ll be asleep. #authenticireland #loveireland
A day strolling around Cong brought us through this beautiful gate.

The word “Cong”, which in Irish is Conga, is from Cúnga Fheichín meaning “Saint Feichin’s narrows”.

Saint Féichín (died 665) was a 7th century Irish saint. Sources for his life and legend include Irish annals, martyrologies, genealogies, and hagiographical works.

The first monastic houses said to have been founded by Féchín are those on the islands of Omey and Ardoilén, both off the coast of Galway.

I ate so many scones in Ireland. 😋 Sharing darina_allen’s recipe plus tips we learned from our baking class at ballymaloecookeryschool, on the williamssonoma blog. This is a nice base recipe to tweak sweet or savory. As far as eating them, again it’s a base to add the yummy stuff like butter, clotted cream and jam. I’m now a fan of Irish Whiskey Marmalade. 🍊🥃 #AuthenticIreland

My first time trying Victoria Sponge Cake. 🍰 This one is from thepepperpotcafe (such a cute name) in Dublin. The sponge is denser than I expected but ate well with the thick whipped cream filling. It was so rich and flavorful I for sure thought there was something added to it but they said it’s straight cream. The Irish dairy is JUST THAT GOOD. 😭🥛🍶 It was heavenly. Layered with homemade raspberry jam. Perfect teatime treat.

  1. While I would be hard pressed to call any of your BFS issues a favorite, surely this month’s Irish issue is a top contender. The recipes you chose to include are wonderful-every one, the plethora of brilliantly researched information, tips, references, historical information, and absolute beautiful and extensive photography are beyond stellar. Among the very talented bakers you selected to showcase, I am particularly pleased to see one of my personal favorites, Gemma Stafford, included in this volume. I have her book (almost signed but for Covid and a cancelled Pie Fair), follow her BBB site and delight in her Irish-to-the-core presentations. Clearly, who can navigate through these beautiful pages and not at last plan a trip to Ireland as soon as the world returns to “normal”? You have opened a lot of doors with this issue. Kudos to this wonderful project and to an outstanding editor and staff.

  2. This was the BEST issue I’ve ever read – my friend and I had to cancel our Ireland vacation this year due to Covid-19. Having this issue to flip through was the second best thing! Wonderful.
