Am I a food critic? No.
Am I a foodie? Yes!
I attended Augustine's Restaurant's final service at The Clarion Hotel Cork last night.
Brendan Cashman head chef and owner promised it would delight us foodies with his final menu degustation. We were not disappointed.

I won't even attempt to describe each of the dishes as I would not be able to do them justice with my limited foodie vocabulary and as for the wine which accompanied each course.... that's a whole other blog post.
Am I Wine Connoisseur? No.
Am I a Winebibber? Hell Yeah!
