Local produce cooks up treat

LOCAL produce was the only game in town last evening as up to 500 food enthusiasts joined the Tipperary Food Producers at their first Christmas Cookery Extravaganza in Clonmel.

An avenue of the Tastes of Tipperary was among the features of the event which took place in association with Bord Bia, with everything served coming from the Tipperary area.

Included in the programme was a cookery demonstration by Bord Bia chef Sheila Kelly along with Sarah Baker of Cloughjordan Cookery School and Pat Whelan from the award-winning James Whelan Butchers in Clonmel.
