First night in Cork and wandered around following people to see what’s for dinner. My stomach was a bit unsettled from the travel so it wasn’t ready for a fish and chips pub crawl.

Cornstore looked warm and quiet from the outside. I was greeted warmly and given great service. Their set menu was a treat as it let me choose a variety.

I went with the prawns, the hake and the posset. YUMMY! foodie town indeed!

The prawns were spicy with a warm sourdough. Had the obligatory Guinness which was smooth and easy. Truly a treat.

The hake in bur blanc was delicate and full bodied. I loved the beets as it grounded the dish along with the sliced ham. Paired this lovely with their local rock shore lager. Crispy and smooth foil to the luscious fish.

Desert! Had to try the posset because I had no idea what that was but I knew that lemon and rhubarb were gonna zing. And it did. A great palette cleansing end to a great meal.

My waitress was super attentive and described the dishes with great detail. The host seemed to go out of his way to make me feel comfortable. Loved every minute is this place.

Great spot to eat and relax without the super loud pub atmosphere. A must try.
