Welcome to Tastebud Traveller, the podcast that takes you on tasty adventure around the world with your hosts Julia Zaetta and Ben Alcock, plus a line-up of fabulous guests.
In this episode we visit Ireland, home of glorious green hills, Guinness and the Blarney Stone! Julia hasn’t visited the Emerald Isle so picks Ben’s brains about his trips, involving iconic Dublin and a country wedding. Ben has seen the incomparable Book of Kells, visited stone-age monument Newgrange and patronised the hostelries of Temple Bar. They’re joined by Sofia Hansson from the Tourism Ireland to talk about travel in this warm and welcoming country, which is full of folkore, rich in literary history and also a must-visit for golf lovers! Then Tastebud Traveller regular Paul Diamond from Selector Magazine is back to talk about his personal connection to Ireland, and what to eat and drink when you’re there.
