A big gathering at The Kiln in the Heineken Brewery on Thursday evening saw Cónal Creedon launch his latest book, Spaghetti Bowl.

The Cork author grew up around Coburg Street in the city, a stone’s throw from the brewery, and many of the essays in this latest anthology are set in area.

Benny McCabe, publican and longterm neighbour of Creedon, gave the main launch speech to a packed Kiln, with Cork Lord Mayor, Cllr Dan Boyle, among the attendees.
