Episode 57: Three Flaming Sambucas and a 10p mix
"What were you doing up Pump Street?"
February is Love Legenderry Food Month celebrating all of the culinary genius that the City has to offer. Back in November the TDG's embraced their heritage and embarked on the Derry Girls food tour. It is perhaps safe to say that tour guide Feargal Doherty may not have quite known what to expect from these three.
No tour of Derry is ever going to be straight laced or straight forward - throw in a chip shop order, flaming sambucas and a trip up Pump Street and you're asking for trouble.
Which of the TDG's showed a natural talent with a cream horn and who had points deducted for cheek?
Slainte Mothf##kas this is one tour you won't want to miss.
Winking and cream horns are optional - no Feargal Dohertys were harmed during the making of this episode.
