THE HUMBLE SAUSAGE roll is, along with chicken fillet rolls and spice bags, the unofficial food of the Irish people.
Corkonians love their sossie rolls, so it’s not surprising they’ve perfected the art.

Though famed for their coffee, Union Grind do an interesting line in sausage rolls too, with flavours like Spicy Mexican Chorizo and Garlic and Herb. Yum.
