Interested in anything to do with food and tourism in Ireland - as researcher, activist, advisor, academic, consumer, employee or employer.
Great news: “Irish Food History, A Companion” edited by @irishcookbooks.bsky.social & Máirtín Mac Con Iomaire has just won Food & Drink Book of the Year @ the Irish Book Awards tonight. Full disclosure- I was one of the 25 contributors to the book.

Can you believe it? The Boxty House restaurant in Dublin is 35 years old & now run by the second generation! Huge credit to Padraigh Óg Gallagher & his family, and thank you for the opportunity to celebrate it with you. (Boxty is a trad potato fish from Leitrim and the surrounding counties)

Just back from the Samhain Festival of Food & Culture 2023 in Kells, Co Meath where we talked about this forthcoming book. I think it may be of interest to some? One of the editors is @irishcookbooks.bsky.social and, dare I say, contributors include myself.
