1. Way back in January, Aaron’s Takeaway in Tipperary began 2016 as they meant to go on – with this 4ft wrap creation
Groundbreaking.
It’s Ireland’s largest wrap, we understand.
2. In the same month, a Limerick chef made a leap in 2016 fusion cuisine with the bacon and cabbage chips
3. It was early this year that Walsh’s Bakehouse in Waterford invented the Blaa-guette - a hybrid of a blaa and a baguette
4. A takeaway in Tyrone introduced the “pizza munchy box” to their menu
5. And a Wicklow takeaway did a breakfast version
6. Poutine was finally introduced to Ireland in early February
7. McDaid’s Bakery in Derry started making giant versions of cream cakes
8. Legendary Dublin pub The Gravediggers invented the “Irish spring roll”
Which is ham, cabbage and spuds – all in a traditional spring roll coating.
9. While a place in Dalkey made their own “cheeseburger spring rolls”
10. Look at this full Irish breakfast pizza from Platform in Bray
11. And this Coco Pops French Toast was spotted in Dublin
12. GBK brought us the Mikado milkshake
13. And there was, of course, the Terry’s Chocolate Orange McFlurry
14. When Burger King launched these red burgers, the novelty market was nearly saturated
15. But then KFC released the “O’Sanders burger” exclusively here
And it was pretty Irish:
Original recipe chicken, in an Irish Pride bun,with onion rings, cheese slice with Cork Cheddar and a BBQ sauce
16. And “cheese and onion fries” too
17. And finally… that time Aaron’s Takeaway went above and beyond with this monstrosity
What a year for gourmet fine-dining fast food.
