COUNTY
KERRY
In
keeping with its neighbouring county, Kerry has a strong agricultural
base and the benefits flow through very quickly to restaurants in the
form of fresh, natural produce. Space does not permit inclusion of all
the notable restaurants and in many little coves are unassuming premises
with a culinary surprise just waiting to be discovered. As a rough guide
to prices the following indicators have been included for a standard
three course meal, but excluding wine.
