Great talent thrives under pressure, and our 24 for '24 are culinary players who have shown that they can stand the heat in the kitchen. The going was tough in the hospitality trade in 2023, but that didn't hold back this cohort of mavericks, people who put excitement on the plate along with deliciousness.
From Doolin to Dublin, from Dingle to Dundalk, these 24 destinations stand as definitions of what contemporary Irish food is all about. And just what might that be? It’s the ability to express yourself clearly and creatively through cooking, whether you have a horsebox to work in, or a smart city room, whether you are a newcomer to the business, or an experienced chef turning in a different direction. Everyone wants thrillsville when they push open the doors, and our 24 for ‘24 deliver, everytime.
