This famous pub, in the village renowned for its tweeds and handknits, is a cosy, welcoming place in its seventh generation of family ownership, with five or six small rooms packed with bric à brac and plenty of tables and chairs for the comfortable consumption of wholesome home-made food, or a pint of Guinness. Ardara, Ireland
I think the first time I was in Kitty's was 1987, when I was in town for the American Historical Association convention.
On my first visit to Brussels, I stumbled across Fabian O'Farrell's, an Irisb pub close to the European Parliament. At this stage, I wouldn't remember any great detail - what beers they had or what sort of prices they charged. It was bright, clean and comfortable inside, but it was quiet enough. (It was the middle of the afternoon - after lunchtime but before hometime, I wouldn't have expected any great crowds).
It was nine years before I managed a return to Brussels and I was sorry to find that, in my absence, Fabians had served last orders.
