This Week's
Highs and Lows
6/8/2014
I've decided to add a weekly 'Highs and Lows' post to my blog to document the tasty and not so tasty cibo that crosses my path each week!
In the interest of clarity, I have to say that I used to work in this lovely little cafe located in Michael Murphy's furniture shop on the main street of Newbridge. Ali and I popped in for lunch yesterday. I haven't worked here in over a year and it's now under the new ownership of chef Dora-May Cousins but I decided I wouldn't do a full review. One thing I must include though are the delicious sweet potato fries and avocado mayo that accompanied my cajun chicken burger. The fries are crispy and perfectly seasoned and are perfectly matched by the fresh and creamy avocado mayo. Wonderful!
Low: Prosciutto and Mozzarella Frittata - Home cooked
I went to Naas Farmer's Market last Saturday and along with my usual bounty of fresh fruit and vegetables, I picked up some Irish buffalo mozzarella. It's deliciously creamy, slightly salty and is the perfect addition to any pizza or sandwich. Unfortunately after two days in the fridge it loses these qualities and soured my otherwise perfect frittata. It was completely my fault though, when fresh, it's a great product.
