6 deliciously summery new menu items to try in Cork today
It’s actually HAPPENING.
Sun. Actual, legit sunshine. And with sunshine comes a primal urge – the need to shove something ridiculously delicious into our gobs while sitting in a sun-dappled city terrace or basking in Vitamin D by a sunny window.
Here’s a little guide to the new menu additions to devour now:
The Crab Tostada at Cask
Where: MacCurtain Street, Cork City
A vibrant, zesty little dish to enjoy when you’re keeping it light, Cask’s new Crab Tostada involves baby gem lettuce, garden peas, horseradish and a savoy cabbage reduction. It’ll have tiny mermaids singing sea shanties in your mouth.
