Experience Delightful Irish Cuisine During a Cooking Demo with Charming Locals

Richenda has held a deep fascination for food and cooking from the time she was a young girl! She loved to watch her mother throw a loaf of bread in their Aga, a traditional stove and oven that was the hearth of the family. Richenda studied at the Cordon Bleu in London and Switzerland before she returned to Dublin where she taught at the first Cordin Blue cooking school in Ireland.

Richenda and her husband Michael live in a stunning 300-year old family home that Richenda inherited and which has been lovingly restored. She teaches professional cooking demonstrations in her traditional kitchen. Ask to take a peek at the famous Aga stove where you might get to bake a tart or bread! Avid travelers, Richenda and Michael enjoy authentic cuisine on their travels and are delighted to offer Irish cuisine with Richenda’s creative touch to travelers visiting Kilkenny, a charming Irish town south west of Dublin. Get a feel for true Irish hospitality and cuisine with this lovely couple.
