Breakfast at Browne's

Another tasty breakfast this morning at Browne's Irish Market & Deli.

It was a wee bit cold, but this smiling Paddy gave us a warm welcome.

The gang at Browne's were very welcoming to us and even burned a small piece of turf to make it smell like a cold day in Ireland.

Mayo-man James Bradley joined some of the KCGAC players for a bite to eat. As the weather warms up we'll be seeing Mr. Bradley out on the field as a football coach.

The Full Irish

If you've ever been over to Ireland (or anywhere in the British Isles) you will hopefully have had the pleasure of a Full Irish (insert country here) Breakfast or just simply a big fry-up.

Depending on the geographic location and the actual establishment what you get on the plate will differ ever so slightly, but bacon, sausage, egg and tomato are the unifying ingredients. Some will add baked beans (love 'em), chips, mushrooms, black or white pudding, toast, soda farels, potato farels, brown bread. Whatever lands on your plate, you know it's going to be one hell of a hearty breakfast. The kind of food that could fuel a Gaelic sportsman all day.

We can't all have the good fortune of traveling to Ireland, so the good folks at Browne's Irish Market & Deli are going to save you the price of airfare and offer the full Irish breakfast at their store every Saturday leading up to March 17th (why such an arbitrary date I don't know?).

So, put on your favorite Irish themed shirt and head over for the best breakfast this side of biscuits and gravy and if you like you can even have a pint of Guinness while you are there and make it the real deal.
