There’s so much going on for St. Patricks Day it needed it’s own W.O.W(what’s on where). All events on the 17th unless otherwise stated.

Let’s start with Dublin

Stiletto Heel Dash
Ladies a great way to start the day is to head to O’Connell St for an 80 metre run in your heels. All in aid of the Marie Keating foundation. Register over on www.mariekeating.ie -- only €25

Guinness Storehouse
If your name is Patrick of Patricia(or some variant of it) you should head over to the Guinness Storehouse for free and enjoy the festivities over there -- they have bands, street performers, pyop…all details over on the Guinness site.

Lastly don’t forget that we want decent reviews on the site -- so only reviews over 40 words count for the competition.

Fenn's Quay Cork

Our next truvo.ie get together is going to be on in Cork in Fenn’s Quay restaurant Saturday March 13th at 5pm.

First of all I choose this restaurant because it has such glowing reviews on the site. With 4.5 out of 5 on the ratings and such words as ‘cannot praise this restaurant enough‘ featuring in two different reviews we’re going to head in and see what all the fuss is about.

Kevin who runs the restaurant (along with his partner and the head chef) is going to treat is to an educational evening of wine and beer matching -- curious to find out more? me too? The food and drink will be on truvo.ie -- more details to be confirmed closer to the date.

How do you get an invite?
