6 years ago they decided to come back to Ireland and setup in Dublin. Pat worked as a Sous Chef and Soizic as Head Sommeter for the 2** Michelin restaurant Patrick Guilbaud on Merion Square. The couple then ran Kish restaurant in Dalkey but finally decided it was time to do it for themselves.

Pat being from Cork, they decided to come home and open their own venture.

The restaurant is located in the heart of the Cork City. The menu is based on the French cuisine, using fresh produce from the local market.

Using all their previous experience, Pat and Soizic are now offering a new experience to the diners of Cork City.
