Diarmuid, a native of Killarney, has worked as a Head Chef and Executive Chef all over the world over the past 20 years, including in places as exotic as Texas, Belize and the Caribbean. He returned to his hometown a year ago to join the team at Café du Parc.

Speaking to the Killarney Advertiser, the Head Chef said there’s something for everyone at The Tan Yard.

“We spent a month testing our menu and the focus was really on figuring out what the market wants,” he said. “We have a wide selection of specialities and it’s all about casual but quality dining. We’re hoping to build on the success of the Café du Parc and the reaction so far has been very positive.”
