Stefan invites you to the chefs table

A NEW concept restaurant created by newly appointed and award-winning executive head chef, Stefan Matz, has opened at Delphi Adventure Resort & Spa.

The new 34-seater stand-alone restaurant brings a completely new dining experience not only to Delphi Adventure Resort but to Leenane and the greater Connemara area.

Officially opened for business since the beginning of May, the restaurant has generated huge hype in the media and received great reviews from diners, including celebrities Jon Bernthal, Tom Holland, John Lynch and Hugh O’Connor, who have already dined in the restaurant on multiple occasions.

All the tables in the restaurant surround an open kitchen, incorporating a theatrical atmosphere and culinary showcase for diners. The highly acclaimed chef will front the restaurant and has developed an exquisite a la carte and tasting menu that celebrates the best of local produce and ingredients.

Seafood is picked along the wild Connemara shores, with mussels caught fresh in the Killary fjord. The organically farmed lamb and beef comes from the hills surrounding Delphi, while local growers and suppliers provide bountiful produce.

The menu draws its inspiration from the local land and sea. It features a tempting range of refined meat, fish, poultry or vegetarian options; each has its own complex array of inventive flavours and textures paired with a carefully curated wine selection to complement particular dishes.

Commenting on the launch, Stefan said: “Delphi Adventure Resort & Spa, as a location for the new restaurant, is second to none, with stunning mountainous views of the natural surroundings and rugged landscape. The resort is a celebration of Ireland’s finest beauty where the outdoors along with good quality food and enjoyment are all central to the guest experience.

“I am looking forward to working with local farmers and suppliers to weave their produce throughout our menus and to lead Delphi on the path to becoming a top gourmet destination in the west of Ireland.”

Experience this delectable new dining experience for yourself and savour a three-course a la carte menu from €46 per person or indulge in a five-course tasting menu from €49, and pair with accompanying wines for an additional €39.

The restaurant also hosts a unique Sunday lunch tasting experience where you can dine early from 2 to 7 p.m. and enjoy a four-course taster menu for €39, which is set to be a popular alternative to the traditional Sunday lunch.
