Hailing from Wexford, the folks over at Pixelpod give us their reccomendations of the top things to do this May. Now that we're on the brink of summer, we'll definitely be making a trip to check out these local reccomendations!
Food
Breakfast:
D'lush is in Wexford Town ( about 70ft from our studio!) we think it has the best coffee and breakfasts in town. Healthy(ish) frys with homemade brown bread or some pancakes and fresh berries.
Lunch:
We love Mi Street Food because it's fresh, tasty and authentic Asian food.
Dinner:
Simon Lambert & Sons
Go for some good pub food and stay for their own brews of Ale, Larger, IPA. The Citra Pale Ale is delicious but they have lots to choose from.
