    #26 | With Relish Live - From The Sublime To The Ridiculous

    We were back at The Fumbally Cafe once again for this very special edition of the podcast, as With Relish makes its second appearance at The Dublin Podcast Festival & Eat:ith, The Fumbally’s autumn series of events. This years theme was; From The Sublime To The Ridiculous, and Aoife and Harry tasked their guests, who were each representing one of Ireland’s 4 provinces, to speak about what makes their food region so unique, brilliant and slightly bizarre at times. The star studded lineup featured some of Ireland’s most passionate and influential culinary figures of recent years, and was by far our biggest podcasting highlight so far.  A huge thank you has to go to all of our guests for joining us on the evening, our wonderful sold-out audience for their participation, Ash, Luca and everyone at The Fumbally Cafe for their amazing hospitality and Alan the Headstuff.org Editor who got us out of some very scary tech difficulties which nearly ruined the night. The Line Up: Cliodhna Prendergast who is represented Connacht, is a professional chef and food writer-photographer for the Sunday Times. Currently living in Connemara, she is one half of Lens and Larder; Photography and food styling workshops telling visual food stories with International photographers in extraordinary Irish Country Houses.

Munster’s representative is Sinead Ní Ghairbhit, owner of the Cheese Press in Ennistymon, the only shop in the world that only sells Irish cheese.

    #19 | Food For Thought - An Episode About Mental Health

    For episode 19 of With Relish, Harry and Aoife talk about an issue that is extremely important to themselves and others within the food industry, yet often gets left behind in open discussion. This week’s show aims to look at the relationship between food and mental health in two different ways;  * Our diet and mental health * Mental health in the cooking industry In our first interview we are joined in studio by Eleanor Sutton, a senior dietitian at St Patrick’s Mental Health Services. Eleanor tells the guys about simple ways your diet and food choices can help you when suffering from depression, anxiety and other illnesses. In the chat, she also discusses the harm that food shaming can do to someone who is trying to recover from these illnesses. Finally we are joined by James Sheridan who is the Chef/Owner of Canteen in Celbridge to chat about mental illness within the cooking industry. In what was an incredibly honest and informative interview, James shares his own story about dealing with mental illness while running his own restaurant. The discussion looks at macho culture, stress in kitchens, unfair pay and whether there is something inherent about professional cooking that is bad for your mental health? **About St Patrick’s Mental Health Services:** St. Patrick’s Mental Health Services are an independently governed, not-for-profit mental health service catering for service users from all over Ireland.
