The Station House at Raheny, Dublin

We went to a nearby pub to get some Irish food today.  I was treated to a meal of Roast beef, while my mom ate some fish and dips.  Here are the pics:



What can I say?  The food was good.  The roast beef and the gravy was delicious, the meat wasn't too tough.  The gravy tasted of herbs, but it did not overpower the meat and it blended well together.  The potatoes were 2 different dishes: one was mashed and another garlic.  I preferred the garlic potatoes, but the mashed potatoes were also good.  I guess the tastiness was the deciding factor, since the mashed potatoes were a bit bland when compared to the garlic potatoes.

The only problem for me was the vegetables, which was comprised of lettuce and broccoli.  They were overcooked, and there was almost no taste left to them.  They melted in your mouth, and that was not good for vegetables, at least for me.

I had a taste of the fish with tartar sauce, and it was also good.  I'm not quite sure what fish it was, but it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.  The tartar sauce tasted a bit like mayonnaise with some herbs.  It tasted fine when combined, although I still preferred my roast beef.

In all, it was an excellent experience in eating good food.
