What the hell is Stelk

Winty

What the hell is Stelk, I am a born and bred Donegal hill man and I never heard of it.

Its like Colcannon, I never heard of it till ONeils Irish bars in the UK started to slop it out.

Has anyone had Stelk?

O'neils bars are great.

Where English people drink Dutch lager, served by Australians wearing green tee shirts. So instantly recognisable as being Irish.

Dont get you Irish Stew
I live in London I am not a Londoner. The Abbey never sold Stelk when I worked for wee Dom in the Diamond Club on a Sunday night

Like hundreds of Donegal men, no work at home hit the road to Kilburn

you were born in donegal, you moved to london before you heard of this dish, or atleast that name for it. i was born in london, and i first heard of it when moved to donegal, or again, that name for it (champ).

hope that clarifies things



although had it as a kid, mum called it mash and onions

wee dom no longer has the abbey these days, dish is served in the abbey resturant, what ever its called, last time i had it it came along with a dish called elaphants ear, a huge peice of steak with onions, peper sauce, chips or mash and the above mentioned champ

and hope you only worked in the diamond club, really was, still is a terrible place to socalise in

Kind of sounds like a heart attack inducing version of champ, no?
