Our top picks – Food Glorious Food at Taste of Dublin
Written by Food glorious food! That’s what you’ll be singing this weekend if you take a well encouraged trip to the Iveagh Gardens for the latest instalment of Taste of Dublin.
Foodies will be out in force for the four day event (June 16-19) that celebrates Dublin’s vibrant and diverse Dublin culinary scene. There’ll be fiery live demos and Ireland’s leading chefs cooking up a storm in intimate workshops, while delectable dishes from some of Dublin’s most exciting restaurants, as well as restaurants from counties all over the country will tickle those tastebuds!
The theme of the festival this year is homecoming and is set to welcome some leading Irish Chefs, including Anna Haugh, Danni Barry and Simon Lamont.
There’ll be family events like games and interactive shows for the kids at the Family Fun area sponsored by mymilkman.ie, while Medley owner Chef Andrew Rudd is bringing an unforgettable culinary experience with The Crate – where you step inside the life-size crate where you’ll discover some amazing food and drink.
