More than ever, we are appreciating our beautiful Island and all it has to offer. This year Taste of Dublin aims to inspire you and your tastebuds to continue to eat and discover your way around the country long after the word ‘lockdown’ is a distant memory.
The Taste will be hosting a series of talks highlighting Ireland’s abundance of food tourism potential including restaurants and foodie experiences that are worth travelling for or that might be just on your doorstep.
Chefs, producers, hoteliers, and food tour hosts from areas including Donegal, Mayo, and West Limerick will unveil hidden gems from their counties. They will discuss the spirit of collaboration that local food culture creates and how to encourage and empower consumers to discover what Irish food truly means to them. Get ready to discover West Limerick, the Midlands, Wexford, Mayo, and Donegal’s Hidden Food Trails.

Over five incredible days, visitors can enjoy Ireland’s latest, greatest, and hottest restaurants, mingle with homegrown chefs, indulge in gourmet produce, or simply relax and enjoy being outdoors in the city with friends.
