Erin Go Bragh!

 This year, St. Patrick's Day, March 17th, falls on a Sunday. Traditionally a day for partying and celebrating the wearin' o' the green, restaurants and pub owners around the world cater to those cheering Erin Go Bragh! - Ireland Forever! ( Don't be shy-- seems everyone speaks a little Gaelic & gains an accent on the 17th!)

 Whether we are drinking our green beer, sporting our silly shamrock hats or enjoying our 26 billion pounds of corned beef and a mere 2.3 billion pounds of cabbage (no- really!), St. Patrick's day is a time of fun and merriment for all ages.

 It's also a wonderful time for food and drink establishments, as you know, to gather a little green of their own. Here are just a few ideas:

So your establishment isn't named O'Malley's... No reason to miss out on the fun! Why not celebrate Maewyn Succat Day? You guessed it-- that's our St. Patrick! Host a few evenings of St. Patrick's Day trivia. You may be suprised at the interesting tidbits you can easily find online. For the winners? Gift certificates for a return visit are a great way to keep them coming back, and Superiors Ornate is the perfect touch of green.

By the Sea....Ireland is known not only for it's most famous shepherd, but as the truly emerald isle. If your restaurant specializes in fresh catches, why not serve the sea-fare of Ireland for the weekend? Make available our Anchors Away gift card and encourage patrons to share their "special catch" experience as a gift.

He was really born in Britain....? Just a quick search of the details of this extraordinary man's life will have you surprised at all you didn't know. Prepare a special, abbreviate dining menu for the weekend and share the foods of Ireland with your guests or special drink for a touch of the green.

Whatever your plans to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, Superior Menus' Team wishes you a fun, festive (and green!) weekend!
