Pick up your copy of the April/May edition of the Laois Life magazine which hits the shelves this week. We are now on the cusp of summer and this edition is packed full of fresh content that will whet the appetite for what will hopefully be a season to remember here in Laois.

In our feature interview we catch up with legendary chef Darina Allen, who hails from Cullohill, to discuss the importance of getting back to basics when it comes to good food.

In our fashion profile, Portlaoise tailor and designer Stevie Blake tells us all about opening his own studio, Monto & Perri, in Temple Bar in Dublin and his future plans.

In our food and drink section, Head Chef of the popular Treacy’s Bar & Restaurant, Glen Hunter, gives us a behind the scenes look inside his kitchen.

In our culture section, Laois musician Molly Donnery tells us all about her exciting career blending traditional Irish music with modern folk and indie.

As always we like to shine a light on those who do immense work in our community. In this edition the spotlight is on Teresa O’Reilly who has been at the heart of Portlaoise GAA for the last 17 years, dedicating her time to camogie, ladies football, and the club’s nursery program.

This is only a taster of what we have on offer in this April/May edition of Laois Life, so sit back and relax and delve into 100 pages of fresh, quality content. We would like to thank all our contributors for their help and co-operation and all our advertisers for their continued support.
