I'm pretty good friends with most of the Gallaghers and the little contact I've had with the kitchen is when they are being very helpful with padraigs disabled brother. I think the regime has changed there from that point of view.

I'm sure it has. Twenty years is a long time <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

I suddenly feel older...

The Stag's Head seem to have re-introduced coddle onto their menu. Was lovely the last time i had it (about 4 years ago...) but for some reason they took it off. Seems to be back, might sneak in for a taster when it gets a bit colder.

I've seen it on the menu in O'Neill's of Pearse Street, though that was some years ago.

While it wasn’t strictly coddle (and indeed I may invoke a stern ticking off from coddle purists, should they exist….) but Gruel sometimes make a sausage & bacon soup that is very coddle-esque. Their small soup/ half a roll deal, while not exactly cheap at 6 notes, is damn tasty. And they have O’Haras bottles- although I’m usually only there for lunch and work tends not to approve of that (curses!)
