This Limerick restaurant is now selling ‘freakshakes’ and it’s the ultimate food porn

Do you follow any of those OTT food pages on Instagram that leave you in a puddle of your own drool?

I’m talking about the feeds that supersize and overload all our favourite treats and snacks from extra large pizzas to deliciously moreish milkshakes.

If so, then you have more than likely come across the “freakshake”, basically what a freakshake is, is your normal milkshake taken up 1,000 notches with candy lollipops, chocolate pieces, sauces, slices of cake, biscuits, you name it.

And now we can actually taste these beauties in the flesh because a limerick restaurant called La Cucina has started creating their own and they look incredible.

I would advise coming with an empty stomach to try and polish off one of these bad boys…

La Cucina is a must if you’re visiting Limerick and up there as one of my favourite Italians ever. With two locations in Limerick both in the city centre or in Casteltroy, both stores create fresh, good food for you to enjoy.

Looking for a tip on what to eat there? I adore the spinach and ricotta ravioli with a side of the parmesan fries. It is my go-to-meal when I’m down visiting and now, I will certainly be trying out a freakshake to wash it all back.

Deeeeelish.
