Happy Thursday! I’m officially counting today as Day 1 of my vacation, with yesterday feeling more like "Day 0." Since my husband is attending his conference all day, I decided to take the train to Cork, where my company has an office. It was a great excuse to meet the team and join the company-paid weekly team lunch!
I specifically requested a Spiced Beef Sandwich — after all, Gemini said it was the one thing I had to try in Cork!
The team decided to bring me to the historic and touristy pub, The Oliver Plunkett, which, thankfully, seems to serve the Spiced Beef Sandwich year-round.

The sandwich itself is reminiscent of a Reuben, but it’s surprisingly lean, without being overly salty or fatty. I thoroughly enjoyed it! It tasted like a deli sandwich, and I loved that it didn't feel processed or overly dressed. It was the perfect Cork lunch.
