The culinary skills and zany personality of a Killarney restauranteur is being beamed into millions of homes around the world as his nine-part cooking and travel series has been snapped up by Amazon Prime.

The lively and engaging series, featuring Paul Treyvaud cooking on his travels around Ireland, caught the eye of the world’s biggest streaming platform and a deal was brokered with Flame Distribution, who represent the Killarney businessman. Paul, who runs Treyvaud’s Restaurant with his brother Mark, also recently signed up with Big Handsome Media who are acting as his Irish distribution company for a new Trevyaud’s Kitchen series, which he has just finished filming.

Treyvaud’s Travels is all about unique characters and stunning locations that don’t normally get the attention they deserve and it features some cracking recipes and a whole load of fun. “The emphasis is on having a laugh when perfecting simple cooking techniques,” said Paul. “People are sick of nonsense on the screens and just want a cooking series that delivers on its promise.”

Paul has received great support and encouragement from Minister of State for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Brendan Griffin, who put him in touch with Tourism Ireland boss, Niall Gibbons, in relation to possible promotional opportunities in the US and Paul will be conducting a global marketing campaign with the support of Tourism Ireland to promote Treyvaud’s Travels.

Amazon Prime is beamed into 90 million homes in America alone. The Treyvaud’s Travels series features spectacular footage of Killarney, including fabulous panoramic views from the top of Cardiac Hill and Muckross House and Gardens, as Treyvaud is bringing it all back home in one episode of his fun-filled culinary tour of Ireland.

Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce has led the tributes to the late Con O’Leary, an extremely popular and very successful businessman in the town, who passed away in the early hours of Sunday.

Con was a vibrant and popular personality in Killarney where he operated The Laurels on Main Street, a thriving bar and restaurant, which he inherited following the passing of his father, Thado.
The business organisation said from a social perspective, The Laurels became the beating heart of the town and it was a landmark at the Market Cross in the same way as Clery’s clock was in the capital city.
Chamber said Con’s passing really marks the end of an era as he was one of a golden age of inspirational local business people who developed and built Killarney, through hard work, bravery and great commercial flair, and helped create the wonderful tourist attraction and holiday destination it is today.
“Con was very proud of Killarney and he played a very active part in progressing the town at many levels.
“He was a man that was never short of great ideas and his contribution to the business life of the town and as a director of Killarney Race Company was immense,” Chamber said.
“He was ahead of his time in many respects with the introduction by what became known as “the singing lounge” many years ago and The Laurels always led by example through its successes in the annual Killarney Looking Good competition”.
The business representative organisation noted that the O’Leary family has always been very supporting of the town and Con’s daughter, Kate, was a very dynamic Chamber President and is still a very valued member of the executive.
Chamber expressed deep sympathy to Con’s wife, Anne, children Kate, Niall, Tara and Lorna, sons-in-law, grandchildren, sisters, relatives and friends as well as the dedicated staff in The Laurels, past and present, who Con always had great time for and a great rapport with.

Kerry County Council is to host a two-day road safety conference at the INEC Killarney on May 28 and 29.

The ‘Safer Roads’ road safety conference is an inter-agency event focused on improving road safety, reducing traffic-related incidents, and sharing knowledge and best practices for safer road use. It encompasses various strategies and efforts across multiple domains, including road design, engineering, enforcement, forensic collision investigation, technology, education, collision trends, occupational driving, cycling and scooting, e-mobility, active & sustainable travel and on-road events.

In addition to this, AI, Virtual Reality and Driver Simulation will play a significant role at the conference, in improving safety by predicting and preventing accidents, optimizing traffic, and aiding the development of autonomous vehicles.

This ‘Safer Roads’ conference is a non-public event where road safety professionals, speakers and service providers from across Ireland, other EU countries and the UK will attend, including transportation experts, government and local authority officials, roads policing and vehicle inspection agencies, road safety advocates, educators and promoters, collision responders, cycling bodies and community safety networks.

Kerry County Council’s Road Safety Officer Declan Keogh said:
“Road safety has evolved over the years to a much broader scope, in terms of e-mobility, sustainability, technology and engineering for instance. It’s not just about the road or the vehicle anymore, but also about how technology, human behaviour, enforcement, and education intersect to reduce risks and prevent collisions. The ‘Safer Roads’ conference will involve and include every branch of the road safety tree, right across the board, and in doing so, we aim to increase road safety awareness, improve road user behaviour and decrease the collisions and carnage we see on our roads every day,”

The two-day conference also provides an opportunity for exhibitors to attend, and interested state bodies, businesses and service providers are invited to exhibit at the event to showcase their products and services and engage with delegates and officials at the conference.
