Poussin

Hi,
Does anybody know where you can buy poussin (young chickens I think) in Dublin, have tried everywhere to no avail.
Thanks

There used to be a poultry butcher (Geraghty's?) on Marlborough Street. Not sure if they are still there though. I'm sure that you'd pick one up in FX Buckley's or the like down in Moore Street.

Lawlors butchers on the Upr Rathmines Rd and in Mortens (near Beechwood Luas station) stock them as I keep debating whether to buy them or not.

Cheers for the replies.
My GF ended up getting them in the local butcher in cabra (she ordered them)
Only thing is she had to order 20 of them, think they worked out at 3 euro each. I will report back once we try them. Think we are having stuffing, sweet potatoes and honey roast veg with them.

WTF?! 20? Did you want that many? That butcher is taking the mick.
FYI - They had poussins in my local Supervalu yesterday evening. And you didn't have to buy in bulk either.

Saw them in my local Dunnes stores, they're getting a pretty good selection of game birds now. Poussin, quail, duck and a few other nice tasty things!
