Chapter One!!!!!!
A recent two week stage at Chapter One in Dublin, made me realise how many excellent food ingredients Ireland has to offer, as the menu features prominently the best produce from around the country. The time went by way too fast, but the experience was so much more than I had wished and hoped for.
The following pictures will try to give a glimpse of the outstanding food produced at the restaurant. The skill and determination of the kitchen brigade under the constant guidance of Ross Lewis, delivers way beyond what the photographs are able to tell.
