Ask Audrey has been sorting out Cork people for years

How’re oo going on? I was thinking of trying something different with the missus the next time we stay above in Cork. Asian Street Food. What’s the story there? — Mick Dan Paddy Andy, a fair bit outside Castletownbere.

Phew. Most of the letters I get from West Cork about “trying something new with the missus” involve handcuffs and a Brad Pitt mask. I couldn’t begin to describe the nightmares. Asian Street Food is an answer to the question, “how can I get people to pay a tenner for a bowl of soup?” This isn’t like where you go into a restaurant, Mick Dan Paddy Andy, and ask what’s the soup, and the waitress replies vegetable and you say grand. This soup has noodles in it and is therefore a sign of sophistication. Unless you try and eat it with chopsticks and they’ll be bussing people in from Vietnam to laugh in your face. It happened to a man from Skibbereen only last week.
