QUEUESIES....
No problem finding parking downtown last Saturday night. The streets looked deserted. Where was everyone?
Quite a few in Market Lane – no table available for an hour, we were told. Up the street to Scoozi’s. Twenty minutes wait here. They usually overstate it. We waited and were at a table in less than five minutes.
Enjoyed my La Reine Pizza, the smaller one served with salad and chips. Two in the company took the lasagne. This was the usual Irish style dish, loads of meat. Very tasty. The fourth mains was chicken, called Pollo Alla Scoozi, breadcrumbed and stuffed with garlic cream cheese and chives.
No complaints about the food and none either about the house wine: a bottle of Merlot (18.75) and a glass of Sauvignon Blanc (4.75). Total cost, including tips, for a very satisfactory meal was about €90.00.
Then onto the nearby Long Valley for an after dinner drink. This long narrow bar is of the traditional variety and none the worse for that. Quite a popular venue but with many calling for the just the one drink there is quite a turnover and you can usually get a seat, very important if you are of a certain age.

Hey, was very excited to find your blog. As an ex-pat Corkonian in London, I really am missing the home county. I absolutely love Scoozis; yes, you always wait and you always know what you are going to get – but it totally delivers comfort food. My sister and cousin even used to work there, it's manic – but I always go when I am home.
