Three delicious Cork Paddy’s Day dishes you can ONLY try this weekend

Itching to paint the town green?
An adequate amount of soakage is key to going the distance during the St Patrick’s weekend celebrations and if you’re looking for a fun bite to eat, you’re in the right city.
Cork’s bars, bakeries, and restaurants and rolling out the emerald carpet in fine style with a mouthwatering menu of new additions for the bank holiday.
Here are three tasty things to try:
The Green Cure
At The Spitjack on Washington Street, they’ve come up with an exclusive Paddy’s Day menu that will only be served this weekend.
You can kick things off with The Green Cure (€6) a green apple, orange juice, mint, spinach, and ginger juice that’s sure to soothe your hangover, before jumping back off the wagon with an Emerald Bellini (€12), a tasty blend of prosecco, basil and lemon syrup and St Germain Liquor.
For the day that’s in it, The Spitjack Burger comes with all the usual toppings as well as a ham and creamed savoy cabbage croquette and sticky Jameson onion jam.
