Now that it's June, starting to heat up and Dubs start sporting all sorts of inappropriate summer wear, what about a walking tour of the city with a foodie theme. A bit more unusual than the hop-on hop-off bus trip Historical Insights offers a 2 hour stroll "THE STORY OF IRISH FOOD tour." Every Saturday starting from ChristChurch, find out how and why food has shaped Irish society : its role in the 1916 Rebellion, feasting, fasting and fanatacism, St. Patrick, St. Colmcille, Jonathan Swift, the cult and custom of eating out, historic Dublin restaurants and how in the midst of the great Famine 1 Dublin restaurant was unashamably advertising "Beefsteaks and Oysters as usual."
If all that's not spicy enough for you they also offer "Piety Penance and Potatoes" which is their "sexual history tour of Ireland"
