The Season’s Finest Food, Drink and Shopping Festival
Taste of Christmas, the season's finest food, drink and shopping festival, returns for its second year to the Convention Centre Dublin from 25th – 27th November. Discover the best in seasonal food and drink, sample signature dishes from Ireland's best restaurants and be inspired and entertained by top culinary talent in this winter wonderland of flavour.
Between bites visitors can take a seat in the 2,000 seater auditorium as MasterChef Ireland hits the stage in the Live Theatre Show. MasterChef Ireland judges, Dylan McGrath and Nick Munier, will host the MasterChef Challenge featuring invention tests and cook-offs between this year’s MasterChef Ireland finalists as they create recipes from mysterious ingredients and give their top tips for warming winter food.
Food preparation gets a dramatic, engaging, fun and hugely entertaining twist during this unique 50 minute MasterChef Ireland Live Theatre Show which features great advice, audience questions, practical demonstrations and a liberal helping of fun and entertainment to take the heat out of the Christmas kitchen. With music, lights, cameras and big screen action, the MasterChef Ireland Live Theatre Show is the centrepiece of this gourmet festive party! A must-see for foodies and the kitchen-shy too!
After the Show, come and meet Catherine Fulvio as she creates fabulous family food for Christmas in her interactive kitchen or hone your artistic icing skills in the Festive Dessert feature. Jazz up your repertoire of Christmas recipes and kitchen skills in a Culinary Christmas Masterclass with Michelin Star chef Oliver Dunne or take a journey of culinary discovery through Taste of Malaysia and enjoy diverse tastes from two of Dublin’s top Malaysian restaurants.
Browse for those ideal gifts and essential ingredients amongst the hundred exhibitors and then settle down with a fine wine or hot whiskey from one of our superb bars while enjoying carol singers and string quartets, swingin' jazz and maybe even some rockin' around the Christmas tree!
Eat, drink and be merry in style this year and prepare for the Christmas countdown at Taste of Christmas! For more information visit www.tasteofchristmas.ie
