Led by its new Head Chef, Eoghan O’Flynn, known for his passion for local produce, Eoghan brings a fresh approach to the restaurant’s tasting menus, introducing two new produce-led, seasonal menus to begin his tenure. A motivated, ambitious and dynamic young chef who has worked for several years in a variety of kitchens, ranging from casual bars and grills to Michelin stars, Eoghan O’Flynn joins The Cove with extensive Irish and international experience.
The Cove at Fota Island Resort’s menus are all about celebrating the produce of this part of the country, emphasising pride in place, and reflecting its location thoughtfully through the exceptional larder of this part of the world. An intimate and polished setting with its own wine cellar, the sommeliers at The Cove have curated wine pairings designed to complement the flavours of the food. The Cove is quietly luxurious and elegant, where the food on the plate feels both personal and connected — a sophisticated bringing together of local flavours and meticulous techniques.
Eoghan’s new menus continue this tradition, featuring some of Cork and the region’s most talented and dedicated artisan producers. The Cove is open Thursday to Saturday, 6.30pm - 9pm, visit Fota Island Resort’s website to book your table and experience the new tasting menus, or call +21 488 3700.
