    1) Irish Beef Stew with Guinness served with Carrots & Potatoes

    The distinctively flavored Irish beef stew recipe is a favorite on St. Patrick’s Day. This is one hearty one dish meal and the stout beer really adds a great flavor. Although it is very flavorful, the beef chunks were quite tough that requires a certain extent of jaw exercise.

    2) Sauteed Guinness Beef Chunks with French Beans & Carrot Sticks

    The dish may looked simple but it was bursting with awesome goodness. Juicy and tender, the beef chunks were well prepared. . Using Guinness as the braising liquid adds a good, subtle flavor to the gravy too.

    3) Pork Wellington stuffed with Apricots, served with Potatoes & Guinness Cream Sauce

    The pork wellington is my favourite dish of all! A spin off from the usual beef wellington, the chef has done a very good job with the pork wellington. The pastry keeps the pork incredibly moist and juicy still just slightly pink in the center and the apricot bits gives it a tangy sweet flavour. Drench it with a generous amount of Guinness Cream Sauce and you are in heaven!

    Chocolate Fondant

    There’s nothing better than savouring a smooth and rich chocolate cake punctuated with plenty chocolate sauce. What a perfect sweet ending.

    Creme Brulee

    Topped with a crunchy, caramelized layer, the Creme Brulee was custardy and creamy.
