Breakfast in Strandhill

It was one of these typical Irish autumn mornings, one minute the sun beams down, the next it starts raining. The great thing about these days is that you get an amazing display of rainbows.
On this morning, we decided to go to Strandhill, enjoy the waves crashing against the rocks and go for a nice breakfast in Shell's cafe.

Inside Shell's cafe was busy enough with people enjoying their breakfast on this blustery day. The decor is inviting and cosy, and it didn't take long to warm ourselves up again.
I ordered the Eggs benedict , Dolores ordered Eggs Arnold. For drinks, it was a tea and a spicy pumpkin latte .
​
The eggs benedict came out on a home baked slice of bread, tickly sliced ham and 2 lovely poached eggs . The yokes from the eggs were dark orange, so they must have been free range eggs, all covered with lovely Hollandaise sauce.

The eggs Arnold were presented on a fresh slice of bread. There was smoked salmon and 2 freshly poached eggs. We both enjoyed our breakfast and stayed around for a good while.

After our breakfast, we went in the gift shop which is connected to Shells cafe and looked at all the great books and gift and food they have on display.
Afterwards, we took a small detour to Rosses point where we got welcomed with a rainbow display.
