This weekend was quite a busy and started with payday drinks at work on Friday. One of our colleges had a concert with his band, and a few of us went there to listen to them play and keep the party going. It was a really good evening out, but it did not make Saturday morning the best one. I lack the ability to recover that I used to have.
Snapchat gave me a Paddy’s day outfit
But after a very slow morning it was time to visit the Irish pub for the rugby game. It was very full and the mood was on top. The combination of St. Patrick’s Day and the fact that Ireland won the Grand Slam at the rugby, made this a very enjoyable afternoon. There was a lot of people out in a lot of weird green clothes and read beards.
Wonderful chicken gordita
After this we went out to a lovely meal at the restaurant called Harry Pepper where we also ate last year for Paddy’s day. This year they have moved their venue, but the food was at least as nice as last year. We went for a three course meal and I had a lovely Gordita, magical ribs and a finish of Churros. I can really recommend this place for eating and drinking. I decided not to go with any of their nice tequila or cocktails.
Pineapple and chipotle matinated ribs
As the night before was a bit later that planned and because we had a lot of food we just went home quite early. Today I made a nice big breakfast and had a lovely lazy morning, before going for a lovely walk in the crisp winter sunshine. And then it was time for a family dinner at my brother’s new place to celebrate the fact that he has a new apartment and that he had his birthday this week.
Churros with cinnamon ice cream and chocolate chilli sauce
Looks good, and cool plates!
It was lovely?
Glad you had a great Saint Patrick’s Day Maja. I popped into my favourite local, the Railway Bell. The pub doesn’t (usually) do food. However, it being Saint Patrick’s Day there was free Irish Stew for all the customers, prepared by the manager/chief barmaid who is of Irish origin. Kevin
Sounds like a great way to spend the day Kevin.
You had a fun and fabulous St. Patrick’s Day!!
Thank you. I did!
That’s a lot of celebrating in one weekend. Good thing it only comes once a year. 🙂
You are way to right there Marlene
Looks like a lovely St Patrick’s Day. The three course meal looks delicious and just the right portions 👌
The meal was lovely and there was more than enough food! Hope you are well.
Sounds like a fun weekend, even if you don’t repeat it any time soon.
It sure was a fun weekend. But taking things a bit slower this weekend .
Looks like a tasty St. Pat’s celebration!
Cheers to our Gaellic Brothers from France! Ireland! ❤ Saint Patrick was nice to celebrate from here too! 🙂 … And Peace to Stavanger! 😉 Norge! 🙂
