As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, I have been working behind the scene for weeks laying the groundwork for what should be a unique tour of Ireland latter this summer. My plan is for a comprehensive Culinary Tour of the South of Ireland–starting in Dublin. We will take in all the major culinary centers, with several scenic stops along the way to get a good auld dose of Culture.
My idea is for a unique, bespoke tour to learn about the food and culture of Ireland. We will meet with local producers, chefs and farmers to get in touch with how their food production methods are different from ours and how the Irish Food Revolution’s successes can be applied to our own situations. Along the way we will eat in some of the best, hidden treasures and enjoy some of the freshest, best prepared food in the world. And of course the scenery will be incredible.
As far as I know there is no other tour like this available, and many of the commercial “Dine Ireland” sorts of packages don’t offer nearly the intimate level of experience I am offering. Please let me know if you are interested as space is limited. The proposed date is tentatively late May/Early June or Mid-July. The trip will be around 15 days long, although the final length will be determined by the group’s desires.
Please contact me if you are interested. I will be happy to share more details with serious inquiries.

[…] I’ve mentioned Podchef Neal who is based on an island off Washington State on this blog several times and he posts quite a few comments here too which are always appreciated. I noticed the other day that he is proposing to organise culinary tours of Cork and the surrounding regions this summer. A large number of my readers are foodies so I’m guessing this could be of serious interest to some of you. […]
