    The burger place next to the Capitol does awesome burgers. Can't remember the name of the place, but easily the best in town for my money.

    You want to sit down and eat it - TRIBES on Tuckey Street, they do the scrumiest burger, so big you almost get lock-jaw trying to get your mouth around it! Some burgers can only be eaten this way, it is "wrong" to cut them into dainty bite size pieces...................

    Have to agree, Lennoxs Quarter Pounder with cheese...
    Thinking of treating yourself for the birthday OP?

    Heh, where does it say that? My birthday dinner ended up being a toastie in Reidy's Vault. 5 ****ing euros. Nah I'm a big burger fan, most of the ones I've had in town have been dry as ****. Best I've had so far is in the Franciscan Well. NYOM.

    Hill Billys used to do a lovely breast 'n a bun. Don't like it as much anymore. The quarter ponder with cheese from Lennoxs is always a safe bet, great burger. 1/2 pounder from Donatellos isn't bad either.

    He's right, I had a breast in a bun for the first time in years a few weeks ago and they're completely different now, not as nice.

    I thought that the breast in a bun could only be properly enjoyed if you were trashed?

    Aside from which, I worry about eating anything which can cause headlines like "Man found dead in shower after suffocating on own farts"...

    Hillbillies is such a horrible little disease hole too. When ****ed it seems like a 5star restaurant though.

    Myself, Junkyard, Roundy Mooney, Mrs Roundy Mooney and little Round Mooney were having breakfast/lunch in Eddie Rockets today in Blackpool organising the Cork SSF deliveries. Mrs Roundy had quite possibly the most appetising chicken burger I've ever seen. It was the size of a small somalian. Highly recommended!

    Indeed, and she dispatched it as quickly as one would...

    Pleasure meeting you, ned.

    Likewise! Was a very enjoyable morning, will definitely try to make the next boards beers if I'm not gigging.

    In a stupour last night had Hillbillies with my friends. Breast in a bun never tasted so good:D

    I don't really think chicken burgers count. They're too different from regular burgers.

    Good oul Hillbillies. That Tuesday special was my undoing - all I wanted was a snackbox, but then they give me another one for free, so I eat two snackboxes. There is a lot of chicken in their breast na buns, but I reckon I'd manage five or six easily enough.

    The Hillbillies garlic breast in a bun has been reduced in size but increased in price...they know how to charge there but they have a high turnover in staff...obviously their not paying while coining it in at the same time!
