Unique Dinner at The Mustard Seed to celebrate International Women's Day 2017

The award winning Mustard Seed at Echo Lodge in Ballingarry, Co Limerick has teamed up with Sharon Noonan, presenter of the Best Possible Taste West Limerick 102FM radio show and food podcast to host a special dinner, to be held on Wednesday 8 March, to mark International Women’s Day 2017.


Wednesday 8 March is International Women’s Day 2017

Sharon Noone is originally from Co Antrim and is now resident in Newcastle West. She has included the recently announced Northern Ireland signature dish “Born and Braised” on this special event's menu.


Guests to the Mustard Seed (an Ireland’s Blue Book property, which is recommended by Georgina Campbell and has won numerous accolades for its fine dining, customer service and luxurious accommodation) will choose from a menu which features some of Sharon’s favourite ingredients and dishes from both sides of the border.

Head chef Angel Pirev demonstrated his ethos for using locally sourced produce during an appearance on the last programme in Neven’s Irish Food Trails, which aired on RTE1 on Wednesday 1 March last.

The ingredients to make the dish and other courses will be sourced mainly from local businesses including butcher Pat Barry, Cahill’s Cheese, the Little Milk Company as well as the Mustard Seed's own kitchen garden. 

“It has been such an exciting process collaborating with Sharon,” explained the Mustard Seed’s John Edward Joyce.  “We look forward to producing our West Limerick interpretation of the Northern Ireland signature dish which incorporates beef shin and I’m sure guests will have difficulty deciding between it and the other options on offer.”

The classic Northern Irish confectuionary, “Yellowman”, will also make an appearance on the 5 course menu as it was a visit to the top restaurant that inspired Sharon to make her BAI funded radio documentary “Devlins’ Yellowman – A Taste of Childhood” last year.  “When I first started thinking about what to put on the menu, “Yellowman” was top of the list,” Sharon said. “Although it will be the Mustard Seed kitchen’s version and not the one using my family’s secret recipe.  I don’t want to be excommunicated!” she said.
