I had a wonderful evening at Mulligans!!! The service was superb, the food was ok for American food.....salt on the chips!!????....you folks call them ""french fries""...we Brits call them ""chips"". One day you Yanks will realise that salt on everything really isn't good for you!! The music was brilliant but sadly Yanks dont know the words to the songs so there was no singing along. In the UK and Ireland this would have been the high point..........all singing along together!! Most Yanks have never even heard of Manchester so ""Dirty Old Town"" was lost on the audience......just as much as ""Leaving of Liverpool"" was and what this song means to so many Irish American descendants.\r
\r
The band played my request for the ""Londonderry Air"".......""Danny Boy"" to many... but the Yanks in the audience didnt have to respect to listen to the words of this wonderful song.\r
\r
A great place to eat and listen to and singalong with lovely music. ""Wild Rover"" is a classic Irish song................. I hope its played again when I visit next........ Im in Nashville sometime within the next two weeks.\r
\r
I'll definitely be going back to Mulligans........... I hope the band know the tune and words to ""Paddy McGintys Goat"" this time!!!\r

p.s. The beer was as good as you can expect a pint of Guinness to be.............Awesome, wherever it's served!!
