Are you guilty of a Tayto sandwich on Brennans bread and a cup of tea? Or maybe some of these others?
Every nation has their own particular food combinations. Here are some of our favourites.
- The Crisp sandwich, a national favourite. And not just any crisp, it has to be Tayto with Brennon’s fresh white bread.
- Chips with curry sauce AND rice. Mostly called a 3 in one or a long tray. When you can’t make up your mind this is a great combo. Usually purchased from a Chinese. The Irish love their Chinese currys!
- Breakfast roll – This is the full Irish breakfast put into a roll and a topping of tomato ketchup.
- Rich tea and butter, made into a sandwich.
- Coddle, a traditional Dublin dish with sausages and potato.
- Ham sandwiches or ‘hang sandwiches’ with butter on pan bread. Simple as.
- Chicken fillet rolls. Usually purchased in a deli, it consists of a white French roll which a chicken breast and a variety of fillings.
- Colcannon a dish mainly consisting of mashed potatoes with kale or cabbage- served with sausages!
- Banana sandwiches, this is a quick and easy tea for children. In the past mothers have been known to spread a little sugar on them for flavour.
- As we mentioned, us Irish have a slight obsession with curry and Chinese takeaways. We love curry made in many different combinations including, turkey curry, mince curry, chicken, vegetable, prawn and the ‘special’ to name a few...
- And how could we leave out bacon & cabbage

- Apple tart and a cup of tea. Yummy!
