Just Ask Restaurant of the Month - O'Connell's Ballsbridge


O'Connell's Restaurant Dublin 4
Author: Just Ask
The “Just Ask!” Restaurant of the Month winner for October is O'Connell's Restaurant Ballsbridge, Dublin 4. Tom O’Connell – a brother of Darina Allen of Ballymaloe Cookery School – established this restaurant’s reputation in its former premises nearby (at Bewley’s Hotel) and, as there was a brief hiatus when the hotel changed ownership, fans were delighted when he found a new home for it in the neighbouring D4 Berkeley Hotel (formerly the Berkeley Court).

Hallowe'en Cooking for the Kids


Hallowe'en Cooking for the Kids
Author: Georgina Campbell
We have some seriously spooky stuff that the kids can help with – perfect for the mid-term break. Not only will carrots help you see in the dark, but they can be made into great ‘Halloween x-ray vision’ party fare. So why not get the kids to “give you a hand” creating Frankenstein Fingers from baby carrots, using flaked almonds as finger nails and assembling them into a pot of slimy green guacamole...

Insider View - Call of the Wild


Hilton Park - Clones County Monaghan Ireland
Author: Lucy Madden
Lucy Madden muses on our affluence, or lack of it, and thinks she may have got hold of the germ of an idea which could open up a whole new tourist market in Ireland - and give back to children and teenagers some of the freedom and sense of wonder that’s been lost in recent years.

Mountain Lamb


McGeough's Air Dried Meats
Author: Special Irish Foods & People Who Make Them
Mention lamb to most people and it is likely to summon up images of spring - green fields and daffodils, with fluffy lambs gambolling around – but, tasty as tender young lowland lamb may be in spring and summer, there’s a completely different and more characterful variety that comes into season later in the year: mountain lamb.

Pumpkins & Squash


Pumpkins
Author: In Season
No other food epitomises the plenty of autumn like the glorious orange pumpkin - although we may be inclined to underrate its many less flamboyant but very delicious cousins in the extended squash family. The pumpkin is synonymous with Hallowe’en, and the bigger the better - but, once they’ve been hollowed out, shaped into the traditional spooky face and filled with candles, thousands of families are left with a lot of lovely pumpkin flesh that’s looking for a use.

Insider View - Green Tourism


Hilton Park - Clones County Monaghan Ireland
Author: Lucy Madden
The other day found me eating a large meringue before going to lie on my bed, as you do when overwhelmed by a large work-load. Yes, business is very slow: this country has so many bedrooms now. For premises with a large staff to maintain, it must be tough. For those like us who rely on, and now can’t afford, ancillary staff, the work still has to be done.

Summer's End - Year's Beginning


Waterford HArvest Festival
Author: Georgina Campbell
So, it’s the end of the long summer holidays and back to school – which may sound a little sad, but the start of the new academic year is always an exciting time. It’s also a magical time for gardeners, who have the reward of harvesting (and eating) many of the crops grown this year - and the pleasure of plotting and planning for next season, as the endless cycle begins again.

Clandeboye Estate Yoghurt


Clandeboye Estate Yoghurt
Author: Special Irish Foods & People Who Make Them
It’s not hard to see why Clandeboye Estate Yoghurt stands out from the crowd: not only is it made with milk from Clandeboye’s prized herd of Holstein and Jersey cows, but the eye-catching packaging is based on an oil painting of those very cows and the estate by their owner, Lady Dufferin, who is a talented artist.
