Snails

centre half

Hello folks, does anybody know where I can buy snails? I'm doing a 'Come Dine With Me' challenge with my group of friends, and I want to do snails for my starter but now can't find anywhere that sells them in Ireland. I never thought it would be so difficult to find them at all

Thanks in advance

Have you tried contacting any French Restaurants in Dublin?

I'm sure if you asked nicely they could help you out

That site works brilliantly on the iPhone. Gives you the option to tick off ingredients and prep details as you go along

Johnnie Fox's have 'em on menu. Give them a ring and ask for source.
