French Foodie in Dublin is a magnificent blog concept, the writing is both informed and well formed. I cannot wait for The French Club review every week! I think the best approach to a country's culture is through it's food and music, and to see Ketty's writing on our Irish food helps me understand my own country's food culture even more. I find Travel or Expats food writing within my own country exceptionally interesting, it's essential social history documentation. Love frenchfoodieindublin xxxxx which is 5 stars by the way
