St David's Day, March 1st and Welsh Rarebit

Tea-time at Fishguard Bay Hotel in Wales.

St David's Day, March 1st, is the culmination of weeks of promoting Welsh foods. What are Welsh foods and drink?

Welsh Cakes
Welsh cakes look like tiny high pancakes. They look like pancakes, the size of one third of a scone sliced horizontally.

I loved them when they were served hot at Fishguard Bay Hotel for tea one year, in the summer of 2018 with butter, delicious.

WELSH CAKES
Welsh cakes served cold in a packet bought from the trolley on a GWR train from Wales back towards Paddington were not so good, and rather pricey. I think you will also find them in a Tesco supermarket in Fishguard in Wales.

WELSH RAREBIT
Welsh rarebit is not a rabbit but a rarebit.

LAVA BREAD

You might want to hold a Welsh night or Welsh theme meeting for a family gathering or club meeting. A group of ten, twenty or thirty people might have a member who has a Welsh ancestor, married to or works with somebody from Wales, or plans a holiday in Wales.

You can learn Welsh online for free through Duolingo.
