Irish food is not exactly famous, but what you will find is extremely good
ingredients used to create basic and classic dishes, both Kerry beef
and Kerry lamb, are certainly well known all over Ireland and further
afield. You will see rack of lamb, lamb stew and shepherd’s pie, in most
places. The county’s other basket is the Atlantic Ocean, and its rivers
and loughs. Sea bream and Sea Bass are popular.Trout and Salmon can be
served in many different ways, and there is an abundance of shell fish,
local chowders are excellent and look out for crab gratin.Wine is readily
available but of course one of the symbols of Ireland is Guinness, and we
can say from experience that it tastes better in Ireland, but if have a
thirst after a long walk, beware the Guinness is not poured quickly, many
might say there is a certain amount of time you need to leave after filling
the glass halfway up the harp. However it should be left until you see a
vivid distinction between the dark body and the creamy white head. Only then
can the rest of the glass be filled. Learning from thelocals, you should
order your second pint before you have finished your first!Craft beer is
making a name for itself in Ireland and there are some excellent local ones.
Then there is the Irish whiskey, the famous one being Bushmills and
Jameson’s, and there are many local whiskies for you to try, the Dingle
distillery produces a good whiskey and an excellent gin.

The climate on the South West Coast of Ireland is mild due to its location
and the influence of the Gulf Stream. The weather, however, is temperamental
and proves quite hard to predict, therefore it is important to be prepared
for all weather. The warmer months tend to be the summer months, July and
August, with an average temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. Temperatures
rarely fall below 0 during the year. The wettest months tend to be from
October through to March. April is often the driest month. Rain can be
expected at any time of the year.
