Yes, you should be visiting Ireland for the food

Is Ireland a foodie destination? 

Absolutely. With some of the world's most famous dairy, the freshest seafood, sustainably-grown produce, ethically-raised livestock, a buzzing restaurant scene,  and a packed calendar of food festivals, the island of Ireland is a must for food travel.

This sweet video from Tourism Ireland gives you a tantalizing glimpse of all the flavors and tastes you can find on the island of Ireland. 

Smoked salmon, fresh lobsters and mussels, tender meat, sweet and tart berries, creamy butters and cheeses, fluffy potatoes, craft beers, and dining experiences ranging from traditional to avant-garde - it's all waiting for you.  

September, October, and November, designated Ireland’s “Taste the Island” months, are an especially good time to celebrate Ireland’s food and drink.
