Essentially, the theorem posits that a single monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will eventually type a given text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare. Espying a sign bearing the name Llanfairpwll-gwyngyllgogerychwyrndrob-wllllantysiliogogogoch when we visited the island of Anglesey in Wales, we wondered if that monkey had been set loose on the sign bearing the village\u2019s name. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">When Kim asked me to try pronouncing the 58-character name (which actually translates to &#8220;Saint Mary&#8217;s Church in the hollow of the white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the Church of St. Tysilio of the red cave\u201d), I told her locals just called it &#8220;Llano&#8221; for short. As soon as she remembered Llano is actually a &#8220;suburb&#8221; of Pe\u00f1asco, she had a few short names for me. Our visit to the &#8220;Welsh Llano&#8221; came to mind when our debonair dachshund, The Dude and I visited the Quarter Celtic Brewpub. If Welsh naming conventions hold true, I had to wonder if its full name would translate from Welsh to \u201cthe Quarter Celtic Brewpub on the northeast intersection of San Mateo and Lomas in the lower-level of the Ace Hardware Courtyard Shopping Center.\u201d Welsh, after all, is one of six remaining Celtic languages, maybe the most difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_49828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-49828\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-49828 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 750px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 750\/616;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"616\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 750w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03-300x246.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03-365x300.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 365w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03.jpg?size=128x105&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03.jpg?size=512x421&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic03.jpg?size=640x526&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-49828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fish and Chips<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Alas, the story behind the name \u201cQuarter Celtic\u201d isn\u2019t quite as interesting as an infinite number of monkeys on a keyboard having come up with its name. Essentially, the genesis of the name is derived from the Celtic lineage of the brewpub\u2019s three founding partners. One is a quarter Irish, one a quarter Scottish and the third is a quarter Welsh. Thematically, a quarter of the brewpub\u2019s ales are Celtic by style and a quarter of the menu is comprised of Celtic fare. The feel, however, is 100 percent neighborhood pub, with several shout-outs to Ireland and Great Britain where traces of the Celtic language and culture are most prominent today. Those include the proud flags of each traditionally Celtic nation. The brewpub\u2019s logo\u2014a keg complete with tap&#8211;is fashioned in the stylized graphical representations of knots which are used extensively in Celtic art. It\u2019s really quite clever.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Long-time denizens of the Duke City who might not be familiar with the \u201cAce Hardware Courtyard Shopping Center\u201d need only recall this retail space was once named \u201cFashion Square\u201d back in the 90s and counted among its tenants Kistler-Collister, home for fashion among the well-heeled. More recently, the space in which Quarter Celtic sits was home to Freemont\u2019s Fine Foods, one of the city\u2019s oldest family-owned businesses. Several high-end restaurants occupied the space before that. The Quarter Celtic Brewpub has transformed the 7,300 square-foot milieu and sprawling dog-friendly patio into an attractive spot that despite not having a street-level storefront facade, appears to have a very loyal and captive following.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_49829\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-49829\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-49829 size-full lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 750px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 750\/500;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 750w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-300x200.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-400x267.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 400w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-600x400.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpg?size=128x85&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpg?size=512x341&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-49829\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Quarter Porter Stew<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">It&#8217;s easy to ferret out the quarter of the menu that\u2019s comprised of \u201cCeltic fare.\u201d Simply look for dishes you\u2019ve had at any Irish or Scottish pub across the fruited plain or across the pond. That means Scotch eggs, shepherd\u2019s pie, fish and chips, corned beef and cabbage and the like. It\u2019s contemporary cuisine, certainly not what ancient Celts (a very carnivorous lot) would have enjoyed. Some items on the menu probably can\u2019t be attributed to the Celts, but they\u2019ve got cutesy contemporary Celtic names such as \u201cSullivan\u2019s salsa and guac\u201d and \u201cshillelagh sticks.\u201d \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>29 September 2018<\/strong>: The hearty housemade <em><strong>Quarter Porter Stew <\/strong>(<\/em>a medley of fresh vegetables, beef and quarter Porter served with soda bread) will certainly warm you to your bones on a harsh winter day in Ireland, Scotland, Wales or Albuquerque. It\u2019s brimming with ingredients and flavor though it doesn\u2019t have as much beef as carnivorous Celts might want (especially if they\u2019re dining with a dachshund who demands his share). The vegetables are somewhere between soft and crispy, the way they should be. The soda bread, a pretty basic bread, is dense and wholesome. It\u2019s a great bread for sopping up the stew.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63202\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63202\" style=\"width: 615px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-63202 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 615px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 615\/700;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-scaled.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"700\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-scaled.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 2250w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-264x300.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 264w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-900x1024.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 900w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-132x150.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 132w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-768x874.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-1350x1536.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 1350w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02-1800x2048.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 1800w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02.jpeg?size=384x437&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic02.jpeg?size=512x583&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63202\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Trip-Dip Fried Platter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>29 September 2018<\/strong>: Because potatoes are a \u201cnew world\u201d vegetable introduced to Europe in the 16th century, ancient Celts didn\u2019t eat fish and chips, but their descendants certainly do. Today, there are some 11,000 fish and chip shops throughout Ireland and the United Kingdom. Fish and chips are very popular on this side of the Atlantic, too. Quarter Celtic\u2019s <em><strong>fish and chips <\/strong><\/em>(available in whole and half portions of beer-battered fried fish served on a bed of chips (fries) with a side of coleslaw) are a good option. A half-order consists of one golden-hued plank of flaky, tender fish. Though the housemade tartar sauce is quite good, a hearty dousing of malt vinegar is my preferred way of enjoying fish and chips. The chips have that nice absorbing quality that good chips should have.

Enjoy this savory treat on fresh and locally made sourdough<\/em>.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">It&#8217;s a good sandwich with a lot going for it. \u00a0The lightly toasted bread is a perfect canvas for fresh shards of roast beef. \u00a0A generous amount is provided. \u00a0Ditto for the beer-braised onions. \u00a0A penurious portion of horseradish was my sole complaint. \u00a0My preference would be for horseradish strong enough to water my eyes and make my eyes run. \u00a0This horseradish was innocuous for my Kim to enjoy and she thinks ketchup is piquant. \u00a0A good horseradish cuts through the richness of roast beef to provide a more balanced profile. \u00a0It&#8217;s the way I learned to enjoy roast beef sandwiches in Massachusetts and my preference today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63204\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63204\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-63204 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 750px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 750\/482;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-scaled.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"482\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-scaled.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 2560w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-300x193.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-1024x658.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 1024w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-150x96.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 150w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-768x494.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-1536x987.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 1536w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04-2048x1317.jpeg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 2048w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpeg?size=384x247&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpeg?size=512x329&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/QuarterCeltic04.jpeg?size=640x411&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63204\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Classic Reuben<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>12 March 2023<\/strong>: \u00a0Here&#8217;s the menu&#8217;s description of the Classic Reuben: &#8220;<em>Hearty, filling, and wholesome goodness sandwiched between two slices of rye bread.
