Dublin
donal's irish adventure

The last adventure of this series brings Donal and Max back home to the fair city of Dublin. A city steeped in tradition, innovation, culture, craic and culinary delights. Where best to start then on the North coast of the city, in his boyhood village of Howth for a beautiful morning cliff walk with his wife Sofie and boys Noah and Oliver. A picturesque fishing village, Donal often cooks with what he can get on his doorstep and he rustles up a comforting bowl of seafood chowder with seafood caught that morning. Then Donal and Max hop on the train for a trip into the heart of Dublin City. First stop is to the famous Guinness Storehouse, where archivist Eilis takes Donal on a trip through the history of the pint and just how innovative Arthur Guinness before Foxy, shows him the exact technique to pouring the perfect pint, 119.5 seconds exactly. As day moves to dusk, Donal meets singer Inni-K in the 830 year old St. Patrick's Cathedral - the perfect location to hear this contemporary artist singing gorgeous Irish traditional airs. Donal rustles up a dish associated particularly with Dublin - Coddle. The dish is often made to use up leftovers but for this recipe Donal uses onion, potatoes, bacon and sausages. A definite Irish comfort food on a cold Winter's night.
