I trained for Hotel Management in Hendon in London, but was relegated to the kitchen when I came home. I gained Ireland’s first Michelin star in 74’ at Arbutus Lodge Hotel in Cork and again at Cashel Palace in 81’.
I retired from the hotel Business in 99’ and set up a retirement project of a tiny craft bakery in a two-car garage. This has grown quite a bit as now we have 19 employees, 5 five vans and national distribution of our par baked frozen breads.
