Menu: Boutique cocktails, food and cider weekend and oyster season — so much to celebrate

The Armagh Food & Cider Weekend this September celebrates the superb produce of the Orchard County
The Menu had to unfortunately postpone a recent planned jaunt northwards to Co Armagh, but he looks forward to rescheduling very soon. In particular, I'm looking forward to sampling some of the finest apples and cider to be found in the entire country, where they have been growing the forbidden fruit for some 3,000 years, and covering more than 4,000 acres — hence the highly appropriate soubriquet, The Orchard County.
