|  |     Can't remember what the dish is called now, but its Irish.  I would
    combine the cabbage with mashed potates (plenty of pepper and an 
    egg to enrich it) with onions and then fry lightly until brown, 
    in individual servings shaped using a cookie cutter.
    
    Serve with guinness of course and maybe oysters to start?

    I think it's referred to as "Bubble 'n' Squeak" (don't ask me why!).

    This is a "Black'n Tan" theme dinner, the hosts providing
    the main course.

|  |     re .3
    No, Bubble n Squeak is normally any leftover veg etc fried up (hence 
    the name).  This dish was something like Thingummy (seriously).  I'll
    look it up tonight to see why its meant to be Irish.
    
    Cheers

    (or pilsener) on tap anywhere on this continent.

Which continent is that?
-Hal
P.S.  Minor nit:  Pilsener *is* lager, although not all lagers are pilseners.

If so, the beer situation has improved greatly in the last ten years or
so.  There's lot's of good ales available on tap nowadays.

    It is North America, and I stopped drinking in 1985.

Mashed, new season potatos, mixed with cabbage, onion, (optional egg) pepper and
salt is called Colcannon. 
If you're having cabbage anyway, it's an idea to try this.
I've never fried it before though!
.1 might be mixing it up with potato cakes which is potatos, mashed with flour
and margarine (or butter) and seasoning. This is rolled out into two circles and
then cut into four or six 1" thick triangles. (Or shaped in circles if you
prefer) They are then fried until golden brown. 
You could have this as a starter serve one/two on a plate with grated Cheddar
Cheese melted over the top. They're quite filling though. So I agree with .1
that Guinness and Oysters would probably be a better appetizer...
RE .7 I've never heard of a DRINK called after the Black 'n' Tans!  It sounds
pretty gross anyway! 
Why not have Black Velvet, which is Guinness mixed with Champagne?
Enjoy,
Elaine.
