Food

Well known Irish food journalist Suzanne Campbell (Basketcase: What’s Happening to Ireland’s Food) will pose the question ‘When did the nation that was married to the land lose its inner culchie?’, and discusses what Ireland has lost in its headlong rush towards culinary cosmopolitanism. While Pen Vogler (Dinner with Dickens) will look back at the history of food and how it is represented in the works of the great British novelists, Charles Dickens and Jane Austen. Sinead Delahunty will host an event around her first cookbook Delalicious.
