    Not sure if I should have posted this in the Professional Forum?

    if a diner restaurant wanted to begin to serve a full Irish breakfast where should they get the ingredients? Rasher, white, and black pudding, soda breads, you know the ingredients....?

    Winston's Market in Tinley Park has rashers, bangers, white pudding & black pudding. There is also apparently a separate "Winston's Sausage" facility that makes the products, and might be a good source for a diner. Worth a try. Warning: the website autoplays music, which is pretty much unforgivable IMO.

    Perhaps Spencer's Jolly Posh could be of assistance in answering the question, although it would seem they might be a competitor: http://www.jollyposh.com/

    I've had Spencer's, and the bangers and breakfast sausages were good. Back bacon was ok. They were selling in one of the farmers markets (Niles, I believe) and Schafers was carrying their products as well. It seems likely that they'd be happy to serve as a provider for this type of enterprise.

    US Foods also sells a passable banger if finding a local source pans.

    I'd encourage the diner to bake their own soda bread... so easy, and the smell could only be an aromatic enticement to their clientele.

    Just one of the bazillion recipes out there...

    Please keep us posted, kenji, this sounds intriguing!

    Great idea. I've made a new set of friends who own a newer place in Six Corners. He's up for suggestions from me and being we're on the NW side there's definitely an audience for a good Irish breakfast. People around here make it a destination meal. My friend's place is packed on the weekends for breakfast/brunches.

    If I source the ingredients I'm sure he'd give it a try. I'm assuming there could be a better margin in the meal than a basic eggs/bacon/hash browns offering too.
