Theodora Fitzgibbon’s Café Liegeois

THEODORA FITZGIBBON was a beautiful, elegant, erudite lady, well travelled.

Born in London in 1918 of Irish parents, Theodora was educated in England and France and travelled widely with her father and husband, the writer Constantine FitzGibbon, living in India, the United States and in many countries on the continent.

Her travels gave her the opportunity to investigate first-hand the food mores of many diverse cultures and she developed an extensive knowledge of both Irish and worldwide cuisine.
