Noreen Kinney

Noreen Kinney's influence on the Irish food scene is indisputable, no more so than in Cork. She passed away in Tampa Bay, Florida in September 2021, where she had lived with her family since the ninties. 

Noreen, born to Irish parents, grew up all over the world on account of her dad being a doctor with the British Army. She settled in Cork in the 70s, and raised her daughters, Muirgheal and Rachel here until their teens.
