    A Chef's dream shattered

    It is with great regret to have to tell you that our lovely Restaurant had to close. Due to the poor economic situation we could not survive any longer.

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank especially all my loyal staff for all there hard work and the effort they put into the business to try and make it a success, but with the best will and all there help we did not make it.

    I would like to thank also all our customer's and guest's who supported us over the last few years, and I am especially sorry if we cant accommodate any of your future plans you may had. I like to think  one day I will be able to cook up a feast for all of you !

    The GOOD NEW'S !

    The good new's is, that we still have our well established Pastry Shop in Slane and our Delicatessen Shop in the West Street Shopping Centre in Drogheda. We hope you will find everything you need for Christmas, and any cakes and pastry's and deli food you could wish for we will try and make them for you.

    Yours sincerely    Georg Heise
