Irish Cooking Classes with Catherine Fulvio
Looking for a real taste of Ireland? Then, welcome to Ballyknocken Cookery School, House and Farm, home to Ireland’s celebrated Daytime Emmy-nominated TV chef and award-winning food writer, Catherine Fulvio. Steeped in history, Ballyknocken House and Farmlands have been a part of Catherine’s family (the Byrnes) for generations, with official records connecting them to Wicklow land as far back as the 1600s.
Rooted in lush, green landscape at the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains; during the famine years, Ballyknocken House was a designated “Soup Pot” site (where soup was prepared in large cast iron vessels and served to the local community).
At the very heart of this Irish Farm lies Ballyknocken Cookery School, our award winning cookery school that offers fun and interactive workshops, showcasing local, seasonal produce and based on recipes perfected by the Byrne family over generations. We are ideally located a mere 47 KM from Dublin City Centre in Ashford, Co Wicklow in the garden of Ireland.
