Paradiso by Denis Cotter

When Denis Cotter opened Paradiso in Cork City in 1993, he wanted to create an exciting, modern, vegetable-based cuisine. The restaurant soon gained local and international recognition for its ground-breaking, flavour-driven food, and its dedication to local and seasonal produce was ahead of its time. Paradiso continued to evolve over the decades, becoming a much-loved part of Cork’s food culture and remaining at the forefront of creative vegetable cooking. Along the way, a unique cuisine came into being, a style of cooking that grew into something that remains identifiably Paradiso. This book captures the essence of Paradiso now, with just a nod to the past and an eye on the future. It is a collection of new and evolved recipes, presented in a way that reflects how the dishes are prepared and served in the restaurant.
