When leading airline Ryanair got in touch to request a contribution to their Into the Blue travel blog, I could hardly say no. The article was focussed on Dublin's best brunch spots, and after thinking long and hard, I nominated Bibi's on Emorville Avenue as my Top Brunch Tip. You can see the full article here.

Towards the end of 2014, I was invited to participate on a panel discussion about one of my favourite topics, cocktails.

I was delighted to join cocktail and drinks experts such as Alan Kavanagh (Edward Dillons Spirit Portfolio Ambassador and owner of Total Cocktail Solutions), Paul Lambert (Upstairs @Kinara Kitchen) and Stephen Teeling (former head at Kilbeggan Whiskey and now part-owner at Teeling Whiskey).
