MTU students host a meal fit for the Kingdom in Killorglin

The 2nd year students of the Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Food Business Innovation at the Munster Technological University Kerry Campus hosted and managed ‘Kerry’s Best Pop-Up’ at 10 Bridge Street in Killorglin March 24th . The pop-up event was created under the guidance of their lecturer Dan Browne, in collaboration with 10 Bridge Street’s chef Craig Lynch, and featured a delectable four-course tasting menu. The pop-up concept is an essential part of the students’ ‘Innovation in Food Production Service’ module, and the menu used the best ingredients grown or produced in Kerry. It highlighted the creativity of MTU’s students and showcased the Kingdom’s remarkable produce, including locally-sourced ingredients like

Annascaul Black Pudding, Fenit Vegetables, Eve’s Leaves, Poppadum Farms, Dingle Goats Cheese, Dingle Ale, Maherees Carrots, Cahillanes Beef, and Simply Devine Preserves. The BA in Food Business Innovation programme at the MTU Kerry Campus is designed to address the changing needs of the food industry. Events like ‘Kerry’s Best Pop-Up’ give students hands-on exposure to reallife working experiences. The event brought the students to the Firies Food hub for preparation and then to 10 Bridge Street, where 70 guests enjoyed a meal fit for the Kingdom. Chef and lecturer Dan Browne was proud of the students’ enthusiastic and exciting experience, thanking Cliodhna Foley, Craig Lynch, and the entire team at Number 10 Bridge Street.
