Meet Ann

Ann was born and raised in Dublin and brings more than 40 years of experience in food and hospitality to her Irish cooking classes. She spent over 20 years living abroad, working in the catering and hospitality industries across England, Germany, Switzerland, and the Canary Islands, before returning home to Ireland in 2018. Back in Dublin, Ann began leading history and food tours and soon combined her love for food, culture, and teaching by welcoming travelers into her home for an authentic Irish cooking class. In her kitchen, guests learn to prepare traditional Irish dishes while enjoying a warm and welcoming atmosphere that reflects true Irish hospitality. When she isn’t hosting her Dublin cooking experiences, Ann loves to travel and read. She is also studying the Irish language and taking a course on the history of Irish food, ensuring her classes are as enriching and authentic as possible.

What to expect

Please note menu might vary. If there are particular dishes you are interested in trying, please include your request in the booking form.

Cooking experience: (1-8 guests) Join Ann in her Dublin home for an unforgettable Irish cooking class and dinner experience. In this small-group, hands-on Dublin cooking class, you’ll learn to prepare a traditional Irish meal using recipes passed down through generations. Over the course of three hours, Ann will guide you step by step in making classic Irish dishes from scratch: freshly baked Irish soda bread, hearty leek and potato soup, and colcannon, Ireland’s beloved mashed potato dish. After cooking, sit down to enjoy the delicious Irish dinner you’ve created together in a fun, friendly, and relaxed setting. The experience also includes wine, lively music, and great conversation with your host. To finish the evening, Ann will teach you how to prepare your own Irish coffee—a perfect ending to your Dublin culinary experience. You’ll also leave with a recipe booklet and your homemade soda bread as a special souvenir. This Irish cooking class in Dublin is perfect for both beginners and seasoned cooks who want to immerse themselves in Irish culture through food. Ann can accommodate lactose-free, gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan diets upon request at the time of booking.

Notes: This Irish cooking class in Dublin is offered as a shared small-group experience, giving you the chance to cook and dine with fellow travelers. For a private Dublin cooking class, Ann requests a minimum of 8 guests.
