The Menu: Culinary education on the menu
A wonderful three-day cookery course given by two of his favourite Irish chefs, two of Waterford’s most beloved sons, Michael Quinn (formerly, award-winning Head Chef, Waterford Castle) and The Tannery’s Paul Flynn, ticks all the right boxes, offering a splendid opportunity for the more competent cook, maybe someone even considering embarking on a professional venture, to truly hone their craft on this intensive course (www.tannery.ie) and speaking of the ubiquitous Flynn, he also crops up as chief mentor in RTÉ’s new programme, The Taste of Success, offering budding food producers the chance to earn some serious wedge — €50k in cash, €25k in marketing and R&D and up to €25k in sales — so apply before June 11.
