Bücher von Martin Shanahan

Martin Shanahan is the chef/owner of Fishy Fishy restaurant in Kinsale, which opened in 2006. Martin and his team follow the ethos of using and cooking local, fresh and seasonal fish served in an informal context, with staff who take real pride in their work. "Fish is nature's fast food. It is a gift, not a commodity, and deserves our respect", is the way Martin has always explained the philosophy behind his business. In 2009, Martin filmed the first of a successful series of television programmes, Martin's Mad About Fish. This spawned a second series in 2011, Martin's Still Mad About Fish, both filmed for RTE Cork. Martin also has three successful cookbooks to his name, Irish Seafood Cookery and The Seafood Lover's Cookbook, both written with Sally McKenna, and in 2011, Martin's Fishy Fishy Cookbook, which quickly became a best-seller. Paul Flynn, chef and owner of The Tannery Restaurant, Dungarvan, County Waterford, where he also runs a cookery school, is renowned for cooking modern Irish food. Paul's dishes are known and loved for their deep, earthy flavours and although his menus give nothing away on paper, their tastes are hugely exciting and innovative. Paul started his career working for the legendary Nico Ladenis in London and was head chef of his restaurant aged 23. He was the cookery writer for the Irish Times and has written two previous cookbooks, An Irish Adventure with Food (Food and Wine cookbook of the year 2003) and Second Helpings which contains a selection of spectacular recipes using seasonal food. Paul Flynn's 8-part TV show Paul Flynn's Irish Food aired on RTE 1 in 2011.
