This is the pizza I want to find in Cork. The best I've ever had, in Romania two years ago

Going up to Dublin for a match I'd always go in there for a Montaga and a pint of milk

The same pizzas are in Lucianos in Glanmire village.

A pint of milk with a pizza? A glass of good wine is far better man!

They were part of my youth - well my single days anyway

Happy days going in there after a few pints, or sometimes just in for a bite to eat. They were gorgeous. I remember hearing at the time that the two brothers fell out over the recipe for the dough, one had it and the other wanted it as well but was told no. Whereupon they split, with the guy knowing the recipe setting up in Glanmire and yerman trying to copy it over on GrandParade. But he only lasted there about a year I think. Might all just have been talk at the time but we really missed Lucianos

There was a parting of the ways alright but I'm not sure why. You should give the one in Glanmire a go.

The best pizza I’ve ever eaten was Connellys of Leap, absolutely first class.

Much better than that bait thing you got in Romania by the looks of it

Will do at some stage but it's waaaaaay out of my usual stomping grounds

Great pizza in Connollys. I had one in there during the summer served to me by Sam himself. The sun beating down, the pints flowing, and lovely pizza.

I also got my photo taken with the Pink Floyd flag in the back

Brunos in Kinsale do great pizza. A bit pricy but well worth a spin down some evening

 

[The High King]

I have forgotten his first name but the surname is Tavolieri. He had at least one pizza takeaway, in the Grand Parade, until he got ill. I think he might have helped his sons Elio and Antonio set up La Tana, or they set it up after he passed. Elio eventually moved on himself to set up Palmento with Antonio remaining with La Tana. I know Elio a long time, back when he was an excellent carpenter. Their uncle set up Lucianos in MacCurtain Street before moving down to Glanmire village.

Pizza D'Italia?
Great pizza.

A few recent ones.

We tried Nosh 19 out of curiosity..

Staff were lovely, the room is not a pile different to when Nasher had it. Menu was worryingly split across Japanese, Chinese and Thai food.

Joe McNamee and a load of people on Insta had given the place the hard sell on authenticity and there was a menu in Cantonese or Mandaren in chalk on the way in, and loads of Asian looking people tucking into lovely looking grub but we got A Wonton soup, Chow Mein and a Sweet snd Sour Pork Belly thing.

It was shit enough..the Wonton's poor, Chow Mein Bland. The pork was nice but no different to any other Chinese in Cork

A pity, I had high ish hopes. that was 74 quid for 3 mains, 2 beers and a few glasses of milk.

Contrast to the Golden Elephant on McCurtain Street. It's the old Nells wine bar. the room isn't great, it's used to be quite dark and old fashioned when it was nells and outside of some brighter (maybe not better) lighting and some Thai Tat it's the same.

Staff also great, Thai lady took us through them menu. It's southern Thai apparently so more sweet and sour than spicy According to her.

We had Tom Yum Prawns and Thai Prawn Crackers to start and we both had the house speciality yellow curry one for main. I've never been to Thailand but this was top notch grub..Early tasty. well presented, super flavours. Strongly recommend this place it was lovely.

2 starters, 2 mains, 3 pints and a glass of singa beer (€8 a pint, eek) came to €90 not cheap but 100% worth it for the grub.

I would worry about it's viability though Friday night of Christmas season and a casual setting it was less than half full.
