If ’tis a wee bit o’ th’ attitude that needs adjustin’, the traditional Irish shillelagh will make sauce o’ yer head. Faith an’ begorrah it’d take a powerful blender to make a sauce o’ one tho’. Cut me t’roat, rip me liver if oim tellin’ a loy.
Mrs. LFM and I are fans of the Old Triangle Irish Alehouse in Halifax and have enjoyed their food and drink many times. On one visit a while back, an item on the menu caught my eye that apparently came served with their celebrated “shillelagh sauce”. Now I couldn’t let that pass me by, so when our server came back to take our order I asked if the shillelagh sauce was made with real shillelaghs.
Bless her heart, without skipping a beat, she looked me in the eye and said, “Oh yes, all our food is made with the freshest ingredients.”
A fine place it is! Highly recommended, especially if you don’t have to drive afterward.
This, my friend, made me smile
