Celebrated chef Kevin Thornton is to close his restaurant on Dublin’s St Stephen’s Green at the end of October.
The chef, widely regarded as one of the best in the country, said the shock loss of his Michelin star last September had prompted him to make the “very sad” decision to shut up shop for good.
