    Best bet there alright. The amount of decent blaas dropped with the closure of the portlaw bakery :(

    Best crusty blaas can be got it Day Today in Griffith Place. I highly recommend their crusty ham salad blaa :pac: A close second is the Corner Shop on the Upper Yellow Road. I have a rule that you have to be able to knock on the blaa to make sure they are crusty enough!! :p I love fresh tayto crumbled in a rock hard blaa with small bit of dairy gold & a slice of cheese or a meanie blaa. Can't stand soft blaas in this house!

    Jesus, I'd murder a tayto blaa.

    Though, we all know that the best blaa's come from south Kilkenny :D

    Heh, Hearney's ftw. :)

    I think I'll grab a tayto blaa for the spin up to Dublin today.

    Anyways, I've always been a soft blaa kinda guy. What are Superquinns blaa's like?

    Out of curiosity, has this always been the case? Even since the new store? I ask because one of the staff members at the bakery was explaining that they couldn't cook them in-store for ages as the machine was broken and with the new store the cooker would be finally fixed/replaced so they could start making them again. Just curious does/did it make any difference or are they still crap?

    I haven't had a blaa in ages - they don't look fresh anywhere in Tramore. Must head into town and get some. Whens the best time to get them in town?


  • Registered Users Posts: 199 ✭✭pommers


    Didn't see any in there since the makeover, so might pop in and see what they are like now! But don't think they could beat harneys bakery,as good n all as they are in superquinn. They also have nice blaas in centra in Tramore but ya would want ta be up there early,i suppose ya would want ta get your blaas early no matter where ya get em!

    Mang, you don't know what you're missing !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,020 ✭✭✭BlaasForRafa


    The blaas from walshes bakery over on ballybricken used to be the best ever, very sad when that closed down (its where the bookies is now, between the strip joint and the exchange bar)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 262 ✭✭luvlylady


    The Corner Shop at the top of the Yellow Road do proper crusty blaas. I hate shops that sell imitation blaas, they're just full of air. I wouldn't go passed The Corner shop for my crusty blaa!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 73 ✭✭mang


    i walk/cycle past hickeys everyday, i never go in.. i guess ill have to find someone to hold my hand :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 314 ✭✭Elle Victorine
