15 of Europe’s top chefs give Irish beef thumbs up after ABP plant visit

Irish beef was given a seal of approval during a visit to the ABP Plant in Bandon, Co Cork by 15 of Europe’s most prominent chefs — including a chef from Heston Blumenthal’s Dinner restaurant in London.

Dinner chef Jonny Glass said: “We take considerable pride in the food we serve to our customers in order to maintain the highest culinary standards possible. Our visit to ABP today reaffirms our commitment to Irish Hereford beef as we can be assured of the highest quality.”

The 15 visiting chefs are all members of Chefs Irish Beef club, a Bord Bia initiative that unites Michelin- starred and well-renowned chefs who promote or use Irish beef in high-end restaurants in Europe and further afield.
