Oats, time, and a sprinkle of creativity at Waterford's Slow and Steady café

Bernie Murphy and Liam Maher started off making overnight oats at home and they’ve turned this nutritious breakfast into something very cool, with customers travelling to their build-your-own overnight oats café — called Slow and Steady — in Tramore to choose their own topping combinations

OATS, from warming porridge to overnight soaked, baked or even blended into smoothie oats, are a timeless breakfast. Packed with slow-release carbohydrates, they’re a good source of fibre, can lower cholesterol, and help to support your heart and digestive health. 

The only drawback? Oats can, whisper it, get a little boring.
