Advice Wanted: Information about GF in Ireland

[fred_mouse]

Hi All

I'm going to be travelling in Ireland (primarily Dublin and Belfast) in the next few weeks. Anyone have recommendations for successfully eating gluten free? Places to go, food to eat? Places to avoid? Traps for the unwary? I'm running on a limited budget, and I'm (as much as possible) also vegetarian and dairy free. The more I can maintain that, the better I'll feel!

regards,
Fred

I was in Dublin a couple years ago, and I had a really good meal at Cornucopia. Everything was tasty, and all the dishes were clearly labeled as to whether they were vegan, GF, etc.

Thank you! This info was much appreciated, although I never did get to Cornucopia.

the one time I was in Ireland a few years ago, the menus were extensively labeled with allergens, and I was able to avoid gluten, shellfish, eggs, and mushrooms - I recall seeing markers for vegetarian and dairy, so you should be pretty good!

Thank you! This was useful to know in advance. I was very impressed with the labelling in a lot of places, and anywhere that didn't have labelling, I just walked past.
