Diners to go back in time for regal feast

FOOD lovers can look forward to a feast fit for a king after plans for the third annual Long Table Dinner banquet were launched in Tipperary yesterday.

Members of the Tipperary Food Producers group gathered at the Rock of Cashel — known as the seat of the Kings of Munster — to prepare for the event taking place in four locations across the county during National Heritage Week.

Hungry diners can expect a regal welcome as they are transported back 1,500 years for the traditional Long Table Dinner. In keeping with custom, only fresh seasonal food from Tipperary food producers will be served.
