A Meal Worthy of a Saint

A Restaurant Review by Justin Neil Gaynor

With Saint Patrick’s celebrations drawing crowds to mainstreets all over America, at least the ones with an Irish Pub, there is a tremendous opportunity for enjoying some true delicacies. Here in Daytona Beach, McK’s Tavern is hands down one of the most authentic Irish Pub experiences that you can find.

Start with the Irish Eggrolls and a well drawn pint of the black. McK’s Irish Eggrolls are famous amongst the locals with their crisp outer wrap and tender corned beef, coleslaw, and melted swiss cheese. A quick dip in some Thousand Island dressing and you’ll be dancin’ an Irish jig.

For the main course, I recommend the Shepherd’s Pie with it’s rich, thoroughly reduced Guinness gravy. It is comfort food at its best. For a slight up charge, you can get a healthy portion of their Mac & Beer-Cheese... sooo good!

Also, the word on the street is that Saint Paddy’s day at McK’s will include a block party, live music, and a whole lot of shenanigans...hope to see y’all there!

Written by the beloved Irish

“Inkling”,

C.S.Lewis, this seven book series, the Chronicles of Narnia, should be found on the bookshelves of every Christian gentleman, if for nothing else but reading to the children, and grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Though I suspect, you will thoroughly enjoy the series as well.

As men, we are extremely visual creatures and a beautiful lass can very quickly stir up within most...an unhealthy, and even deadly, lust. In this modern Irish classic, you will take a journey through 1930’s Ireland with the main character, Tarry Flynn, a farmer/poet that wrestles with life and poetry and women and in this character you will perhaps learn something of yourself and how to become better.

The beloved classic by Jonathan Swift explores some very important questions about government, petty religious differences, and the heart condition of men. This is another book that will entertain your children and your children’s children for generations, and yet will give you much to think about as well, if rightly considered.

As a lover of short stories, this one had to be included. James Joyce, with subtle Irish skill, weaves together a tapestry of fifteen stories that will have the modern gentleman such as yourself enthralled in life as it was in “Dear Dirty Dublin” near the turn of the twentieth century.

Van Morrison has long been a favorite artist of mine. From my first experience of his work with, “Into the Mystic” that has offered spiritual encouragment toward those lessons in the New Testament that are so often sadly overlooked, to the upbeat, jazzy, “Days Like This” that has often encouraged me to be aware of those days when all is right in the world, Van Morrison is a talent to familiarize yourself with. His newest album, “Moving on Skiffle”, is scheduled to be released on March 10th, 2023...so tune in on your favorite platform...

It’s tradition to where green on St. Paddy’s Day so show a little love...get it today so your ready to host the best St. Paddy’s day party in the neighborhood!

St. Patrick’s day usually involves a few drinks, and inevitably a few party fouls. It’s all in good fun though, so we want to wish the best of health to all of our family, friends, and neighbors that are celebrating with us. These cocktail napkins are a perfect way to bless your guests...

St. Patrick was a highly educated theologian, a classy Englishman that loved his enemies on their own turf. So this is no holiday for red solo cups, get yourself a Shenanigator Beer Mug and get ready to cause some holy mischief.

Show your Spirit when you offer guests an arrival gift to get everyone in the right mindset for a great time celebrating that ol’ Saint that cast all the snakes out of Ireland!
