Irelands greatest deli counter

[seafoid]

Centra leads, the rest follow
Martin's Centra out at fortwilliam docks in belfast was a good one, followed by Centra Malone road, Botanic Avenue etc

Personally the six counties deli-counters are far superior to the free state. Some counters are excellent while others are crap. Any tips for a man who travels a lot on the best delis or ones to avoid. The Milestone in Rathfriland is the best I have ever been too IMO.

This needs debated on when the new Ireland comes about

This is a fair point and one that needs to be considered in any future UI discussions. We'll only give up our public sector if there's a commitment from the south to up the stakes in the deli department!!

There was a book review on Today FM the other day reviewing a book about Breakfasts in Ireland - the reviewer was championing how much better a breakfast was up north because it included Soda bread, potato bread & beans - totally agree

One of lifes great mysteries how potato bread and fried soda (the white version) never caught on down south for breakfast.

The border was effectively closed for a long time. I remember talking to people in Dublin in the early 90s for whom the North was a foreign country.  FFS.

Should the thread not be titled Northern Ireland's greatest deli counter?.............

Where is Northern Ireland ?

It just goes to show that if you live long enough then anything can happen, a positive post about food in Rathfriland was definitely unexpected.

I met a fellow from Cork like that, his name was something like Martin Michel.

The breakfasts in Belfast are better than the ones down south. Farls are a good addition imo.

Yeah lovely. Can be filling though so would only have it if I'm properly starving.

McGleenan's Centra in Keady does a serious feed if you are ever unfortunate enough to be in Keady.

Centra in Craigavon is not getting beat.

A great filler for a day on the beer. Can't believe soda farls stop at the border.

A sausage soda with brown sauce is a f**king delicacy.
