"BEHIND THE HALF DOOR is a wonderful book by Biddy McLaughlin & Kady O Connell. The photography alone is a great reason to buy this publication. It is a cook book with a difference. It is entertaining, informative, has a little bit of history as well as wonderful recipes. There is everything including Breakfast and Brunch, Meat & Poultry, Fish & Seafood and some very lovely Vegetarian dishes. They ladies don’t stop there as there are Soups, Salads, Bread, Sauces, Snack, Nibbles and the all important Desserts. There are cocktail recipes and Christmas drinks too. This would make a wonderful Christmas Gift for the busy cook, and/or a colourful coffee table read for all your guests to enjoy. It has folklore and interviews with renowned people in the business from boxer George Forman to Michael Hartnett, a beloved poet cook and friend of the gals. We wish you both every success. You deserve it. A winning combination all around."

- Derry & Sallyanne Clarke, l'Ecrivain Restaurateurs

“I loved this book! A great look at Irish food, past and present, showcasing the multicultural land and food we have today. Brilliant read.”

- COLIN FASSNIDGE, chef, author and star of Channel 7’s ‘My Kitchen Rules’

“Brighid ‘Biddy’ McLaughlin is not only a writer and cook, she is a gifted storyteller. With Kady O Connell’s exquiste photography and design, funky vegetarian recipes and Biddy’s twist on Irish traditional recipes, this book is as quirky and different as you can get.. a must read.”

- THE SUNDAY INDEPENDENT

“Promoting Irish food requires an educational and creative approach, more so than the renowned and accepted French, Italian or Asian cuisines. Kady and Biddy have done this with grace. Their combined skills and passions have created a timeless collectors item that will bring colour and joy to kitchens globally, whilst elevating Ireland as a food heaven.”

- Eamon Eastwood, Founder & CEO TASTE IRELAND

“Biddy and Kady present a uniquely Irish cookbook filled with fascinating stories and delicious recipes. It is beautifully structured, delightfully visual and charmingly Irish.”

- Darren Hennessy, BALLYMALOE FOODS

BEHIND the HALF DOOR is really a coffee table book to be enjoyed by friends and not stored on a shelf with other cookbooks.The photographs are wonderful and stories extremely interesting. It reminded me of M.F.K. Fisher and Julia Child.I highly recommend the Crab Cakes w Paoched Eggs,Poached Salmon w Coconut and Pork Tenderloin w Pear & Pistachio.

WHATS IN THE BOOK?

over 90 delicious recipes

Flavour-filled, simple, rich-but-fresh recipes, They'll bring new meaning to your understanding of Irish cooking, and a little magic of the Emerald Isle into your own kitchen

Fascinating irish food stories

This is not another cookbook, at its heart is the sociability of great food and it is full of stories when meets craic. These range from the time Biddy tracked down the boxing (and grillpan) great George Foreman to letters from "An Edwardian foodie" - Anglo-Irish aristocrat Dominick Browne, the 4th Baron Oranmore and Browne."
