Sample Menus served at Island Cottage

 

 

 

The best local ingredients for us tend to be fresh fish, duck or lamb. The island fishermen provide us with wild shrimp and crab. We also get fish from the International Skibbereen fish auction where locally caught fish from the larger fishing vessels is sold. We do a lot of hot desserts such as a different variety of soufflés. The following are examples of menus which have been served.
