Rice's Hotel — Restaurant in Northern Ireland

This is a little late in coming but here is my story about Rice'w Hotel in Poinyzpass. I and my son John Quinn had been traveling in Ireland fo a few days. I wanted to show him the Ireland that I knew. We started of in Dublin and traveled East to points in Dingle, Killarney etc. I introduced him to Blarney Castle and the stone (wish I hadn't as he hasn't stopped talking since). We grabbed some Wexford Strawberries for our hostess in Scarva and headed out for the North. We never stopped along the way expecting to grab some dinner before we landed in Scarva.

All in all a very pleasant experience in a well run establishment, definitely will be back and...

Had a meal in the restaurant upstairs. There six of us at the table. Food took approx an hour to come with the six of us being the only people in the restaurant. When the food came, 3 of the meals were burnt to the point they were inedible and had to be returned. They were the beef stroganoff. I had pasta which was nothing special with the sauce not being the nicest and I've definitely had better for a more reasonable price. The staff were very kind and apologetic about the issues with the food, but waiting an hour for food that is burnt is a bit ridiculous, they could've just told us there was an issue with the first batch and cooked up a second. They did cook up a second batch after the food was returned, but again it was...
