County Down (also known as Downshire) is located in the North Eastern part of Northern Ireland, with the capital at Downpatrick.

The unspoilt environment of the island, the great mild climate produced over time quality food: seafood, lamb, beef, dairies, vegetables and fruit, they are all among the best in the world. The Irish are particularly famous for being Europe’s greatest source of eels and for growing the Comber potato, on the fertile farmlands of County Down. The traditional food is still alive in the country, and it is a mix of Scottish and Irish heritage. The emblematic dishes have their roots in bread and potatoes, ingredients that are still present in the modern cuisine.
No trip to Ireland is complete without the Ulster Fry, the traditional breakfast, made with tatie bread, sausages, bacon, fresh tomatoes and a fried egg with a runny yolk. Other local specialities include champ (mashed potatoes with butter and fried spring onions), Irish stew (meat, potatoes, carrots and onions), Dulse (seaweed snack). You must also try the potato bread farl, potted herring, Guinness pie, butcher’s sausages, pasties (made from sausage meat, onions and mashed potatoes) and boxty (a starchy potato cake).
