For the christing love of jesus, i'm sick of you Galway shít bags treating after hours like the Galway forum. There are other towns in Ireland you know. Christ.

Trattoria(sp?) across from the quays, the wine is lovely there too.

Trattoria definitely - I love it

There is also a nice one downstairs in Bridge Mills, huge pizzas.

Yea, Holywell I think it's called. They used to be in a rural area and just moved in to the Bridge Mills. Very nice.

I think Al Muretto is the best italian in Galway, it has an excellent menu.

So definitely Holywell, under the bridge mills. They used be in Holywell, down ny the Ailwee Cave, but got shut due to lack of planning permission, and now they've three. I think Lahinch/Liscannor, Galway and somewhere else I can't remember. Delish.

Seconded. Smashing place, the Pizzas are mighty. Popular spot though, be sure and book ahead.

I've heard a lot of good reports about the Holywell place recently, must go soon!

If you just fancy a bit of Italian grub without the whole formal restaurant deal, Buon Appetito on Abbeygate St (between CPs and Lynchs Castle) is a great wee café. Serve beer n wine too, and with a couple of tables to sit outside if you like...

I was just in HW for a Calzone yesterday. Lovely!
Although they left that white crust on the Brie that was inside it. I love Brie but the crust is bleeh

Speaking of pizza; Sweden has not, until recently, been well known for its spectacular food. One thing that Sweden has always excelled at, however, is pizza. If you are ever in Sweden–try some Swedish pizza. Now, I am not alone in feeling this way. I have had guests from around the world taste Swedish pizza and they too find it irresistible. Why, exactly, is that? Go to any pizza shop, any, and you will find a menu of pizza names that count at least 30-40, but sometimes upward a 100 different types of pizza.

You do have your standard calzone and you have your ham and mushrooms – type of pizzas. But they are soon dwarfed by pizza combinations that are generally not seen at an everyday pizza place in most places around the world. Check out Africana… curry, banana, pineapple. On pizza? Yes – and it’s insanely good. How about Venus? Tabasco, ground beef, chili, garlic and onion. Or how about Cozze? Mozzarella, mussels, giant shrimp, garlic and parsley. It struck me that Swedish pizzas employ a fascinating range of food combinations and that, usually, these food combinations are surprising to people outside of Sweden. At some point, clearly, Swedish pizza makers stepped into some Intersection and created a Medici effect - one that made the pizzas taste very, very good.

Swedish pizza salad
A delicious tangy salad that goes perfect with pizza!
Ingredients
* half head of white cabbage, ca 500 g
* 100 mL rape oil
* 2 tbs white vinegar
* salt
* coarsely-ground pepper
Preparation
Slice the cabbage finely, around 1.5 mm. You can also crush the sliced cabbage to get a juicier salad.
Make a dressing of oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, and mix it with the cabbage. Put the salad in the fridge at least over night. Serve together with pizza. Serves 8 people.
