Just outside Cong, in the Ashford Castle Estate, Lisloughrey Lodge is a contemporary hotel with a lovely Georgian house at its heart and, with views down Lough Corrib, it enjoys one of the most beautiful locations in Ireland. Situated in two rooms on the first floor of the old house, Salt Restaurant is perfectly placed to make the most of the view - just as Head Chef Wade Murphy’s menus make the most of the superb foods that are available to him, including many from the immediate area.
With the nation’s foodie mindset already well tuned in to sustainable living – thousands of us started allotments this year, and no allotment is complete without its bijou chicken run – the next stage is to re-learn all the practical skills that our grandparents took for granted.

Brave (not the word he would use), talented and inspirational, Nick Price is a larger than life character in the Northern Ireland food world, and has played a key role in many of the good things that have developed there in recent years. Although it wasn’t their first venture in the world of hospitality, Nick and his wife Kathy (a constant presence in this book, as in life) are best known for their Hill Street restaurant in Belfast, Nick’s Warehouse, which they created out of dereliction in the 1980s in what has now become the trendy ‘Cathedral Quarter’. 
Nectarines are a smooth-skinned variety of peach, the fruit of a hardy deciduous tree. Peaches are native to China, but they are widely grown in other areas, including Europe; even in Britain and Ireland they can be grown under glass or in polytunnels – or as fan-trained trees on warm south or south-west facing walls. Nectarines are slightly less hardy than peaches and need sheltered sites for successful cultivation out of doors. 
The BIM Seafood Circle initiative was initially set up as programme encouraging pubs to serve seafood dishes at lunchtime, a meal at which many people prefer to choose lighter, healthier dishes. This has been further developed in conjunction with Georgina Campbell Guides to encompass not only pubs but also restaurants and hotels. The programme also covers fish retailers. Check out the listings in this guide and you'll find top quality, innovative, delicious seafood dishes in the establishments carrying the distinctive Seafood Circle logo.
