Catch this unique storytelling event at the Dingle Food Festival

Expect food memories, kitchen tales and plenty of banter from Ireland's top food talents.

Whether it's recounting your day at the dinner table or sharing news over brunch with your pals, the art of storytelling and food have long gone hand in hand.

Nothing beats listening to a story while nibbling on something tasty, which is probably why Scoop & a yarn has become a mainstay of the Irish food festival scene.

This unique storytelling event, which is powered by Square, is the brainchild of Scoop Magazine editor and food writer Dee Laffan. Missed Scoop & a yarn during this summer's food festivals? Well, worry not, as you can catch the storytelling event at the Dingle Food Festival on Saturday October 4th and Sunday October 5th.

Simply swing by Brenners Hotel and enjoy a variety of culinary chats from Ireland's brightest food talents, with food and drink producers, food writers, chefs and local personalities on the billing, fuelling two whole afternoons of banter and craic. Expect food memories, kitchen tales, makers' stories, tidbits of local food history and everything else in between.

The full schedule and line-up is in the works, so keep your eyes glued to @squareireland on Instagram to stay in the know.
