It marks the end of an era for The Dunloe Hotel & Gardens as the team bid a fond farewell to their Executive Head Chef Jupp Osterloh who has recently retired.

Mr Osterloh worked in his role for nearly 31 years.

Colleagues gathered at the Grill Restaurant to celebrate his remarkable career and his culinary legacy.

The hotel thanked him for his “unwavering passion, leadership, and for making The Dunloe Hotel a place of culinary magic.”

The five-star-hotel paid tribute to his legacy which they said “will live on in every corner of the hotel’s kitchens and in the memories of all who had the privilege to work with him.”
