    A Few More Reds

    Linked to Life in Colour at Jude’s here

    I’ve found a few more reds, two from St. Malo (France) and two from Belfast (N. Ireland)

    First up St. Malo and my favourite restaurant which serves up moules in every way you could wish. My all-time favourite is the traditional mariniere style, and I like a spoon and some good fresh bread to sup up the delicious liquid that remains in the navy enamel bowl after the moules have been dispatched.


    The Belfast connection is that Fibber Magee’s is one of the livliest and best pubs in the city if you’re after music, and of course, George Best is Belfast’s favourite son. This poster bearing his picture was for a new hotel due to open just before Covid disrupted everyone’s plans. I presume the George Best Hotel will get underway again when the virus has abated somewhat but meantime Belfast has some great places to stay and some great pubs in which to enjoy the craic and the music.
