Pictures #1 from Ireland 2014

I wanted to just add a few pictures today to catch up with some of the places we visited.  This post has 6 pictures from an upscale grocery store in Dublin proper just around the corner from where we stayed.  Their displays were beautiful, and everything was very fresh.  The store is called Fallon and Byrne,

I am obsessed with cheese, and Irish cheese is at the top of the list.  We did get a chance to sample a few farmhouse cheeses here.  A real butcher, cheese monger, fish monger, and fresh baked goods.  What more could you ask for.  :)

 Diacons, small cauliflower, spring onions.  I wish I had taken a picture of the various cherry tomatoes.

 Just part of the bread display.  So many choices.

 This is one of the two cheese cases.  This has the hard cheeses and the other has the softer cheeses.  Imagine twice the amount of cheese on display.  I wished I could have tasted it all!

 This is the charcuterie case with pate and salami, and such.  Yum!

 This case is mostly sausages and bacon, and maybe some duck at the far side.  Beyond is the fresh cut meats.

 Cant forget the fresh fish display.  And those scallops in the upper left were huge!
