Mairtin Mac Con Iomaire, a DIT lecturer in culinary arts has appeared before in this blog. That had to do with his top of the ratings cookery show Aingel sa Chistin. In Saturdays Irish Times he had a big spread with a photo as well, all to do with the award of his PhD., the 1st of its kind in Ireland on food history, or more precisely, on the development of French haute cuisine in Dublin. It took him 5 years to complete - i know - we were part of the process, and runs to 3 volumes which reflects the meticulous and thorough research that was put into it. Congratulations are on order. His degree will be conferred next Saturday. The idea now is to take the PhD and turn it into what would promise to be a very interesting and readable book We might try and see if we can get an exclusive comment from the proud chef, or maybe i'll have to go through his agent.(photograph from the Irish Times)

Just a brief comment to thank Brian and all the staff in the library for all their help during my research journey and also a big thanks to all my colleagues in DIT who showed great support and many of whom appear in the thesis as they were generous enough to give interviews and provide photographs and old menus that have been invaluable in the work. Go raibh míle maith agaibh go léir, ólfaidh muid deoch nó dhó go luath!!!
