Sarah Eats: Taphouse, Enniskillen

(For some time, I have wanted to give more in-depth reviews of where I eat and spend my time and so, ‘Sarah Eats’ has arrived.  Everywhere I write about is somewhere I personally recommend and enjoyed spending time there.)

It’s always exciting and a cause for conversation, when a new restaurant opens in your local area, or when an existing one is refurbished.

Taphouse is Enniskillen’s newest gastro pub. Previously, Squires, it was well loved for classic dishes and its ‘just out of town with great space for parking’ location.

6 stunning Game of Thrones locations

I am going to begin with a disclaimer; I am obsessed with Game of Thrones. I was introduced to the television series before season 3 started and that was the beginning of a slippery slope into a Thrones obsession.

I have watched each episode multiple times and I read the books word by word. I haven’t (yet) sent George R. R. Martin any threatening emails or tweets to tell him to get a move on.

5 romantic places in Northern Ireland

Love is in the air!

As are all the overpriced Valentine’s menus promising  romantic ambience with that special someone over the Valentine’s period.

I think there’s more to romance than being squeezed into a room where you are touching elbows with the stranger beside you and have you use the torch on your phone to read the menu.

NI’s Big Breakfast:  Ulster Fry at the Errigle Inn

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Well, that is until you get hungry again. Breakfast is the meal that sets you up for the day; it can make or break your mood. I have had many a cranky day due a pitiful half bowl of Cornflakes early on.
