Last Day in Cork

Hello my beauties! Today was our last full day in Cork :( This morning Jonathan and I left the kids with their Oma while we went to the bank to do some boring grown up stuff. We then did a bit of Christmas shopping for Jonathan's nieces and nephews before heading back to the hotel to catch up some work & enjoyed a relaxing room service lunch! Today I wore my new black polo neck jumper from Suncoo, grey wool leggings from Selected, my Whistles boots and my gold Scorpio necklace.  

We all reunited for dinner at Jacobs on the Mall. This restaurant will always be special to me because it's the one where I spent my last birthday with my dad. My family, Jonathan and I ate here for my 20th birthday dinner...my dad was still alive for my 21st but I spent it in the UK with Jonathan as by then I had left home. Aside from that though, the food is absolutely amazing! I had the seafood tagliatelle which is not like a traditional Italian seafood pasta dish at all but I love it all the same! It's totally influenced by Irish cooking in that it reminds me of a seafood chowder with big chunky pieces of fish, lots of fresh seafood and a creamy sauce. For dessert I had this rhubarb & vanilla crumble served with vanilla ice-cream. OMG. This is heaven on a log...literally. The rustic presentation was pretty impressive! And you better believe I licked this slab of wood clean!!
