The endless flight delays, the drone of whining nephews, the pumpkin pie-induced stupor - nothing beats the joys of American Thanksgiving.
For Dublin's homesick or stranded Yanks (and their friends,) the Hilton is handling the worry and the washing up by hosting a weekend-long event. Corn bread, sweet potatoes, turkey and pecan pie are just a fraction of the choices on the Buffet menu (Thursday-Saturday, the 26th-28th November from 5-10pm, €29.50.) Meanwhile, the bar offers televised American football, live country music and beer specials.
Contact 402 9834 or events.dublin@hilton.com for further details, and wear loose trousers.
Hilton Dublin, Charlemont Place, (on the canal, by the LUAS), Dublin 2
Great news! But is it churlish to say that I hate it when Irish people use the term "Yanks"? I won't call you Mick, you don't call me Yank. Fair's fair.
