Kilkenny
In a county and city where only locals get to refer to it as a town, Kilkenny continues to punch far and above its weight on the food front. Boasting two Michelin-star restaurants, countless other award-winning eateries, cafés, food experiences and more, there's something for every palette in Kilkenny.
It's my home, it's where I work, shop, eat, drink, cook and celebrate by keeping an eye on what's happening on the local food scene. Here you'll discover Kilkenny eats, news from the Kilkenny food scene and more.
