    I have a guest coming for dinner and in her country they eat a lot of horse meat. It can be fried like a steak and is supposed to be nice and very good for you. Is there anywhere that sells it ? I also have a request for Goat but maybe that's going a bit far ?

    Never seen it. Why would a guest that eats a lot of horsemeat normally want it when abroad? Surely something more irish would be of interest to them?

    Try

    Irish Horse Abattoir Trading Co Ltd

    Telephone Number: 01-6288454

    Address:
    Turnings Lower Staffan
    Naas Co. Kildare

    I don't know if they are still trading. There is also a horse abattoir in Kilkenny. All the meats in these abattoirs are slaughtered for export - but they may be able to accomodate you.

    BF Meats, Dungannon also process horse meat for both animal feed and human consumption.

    There's a guy that sells it in Templebar on a Saturday, not sure if he's there this time of year. I doubt any horse eater will turn down a decent beef steak.

    reading the OP again he only said comes from a country where a lot is eaten. I would try and make sure they do actually like it, and how it is cooked etc.

    I remember being in china and the host giving me a bag of luke warm UHT milk (a floppy bag like you would get raisins in) and a tin of goose pate for breakfast. All the others were having lovely looking noodles & dim sum and other stuff. They had obviously gone out of their way to get me something they figured I liked, but which I found repulsive.

    There is probably a lot more interest in horse meat so should be easier to get now.

    I think you'll have more luck with this in the Dublin City forum.

    +1 on the guy in temple bar. Remember being horrified the first time I saw it, but at least he was honest about what it was.
