Dermot Seberry is a lecturer of culinary arts and gastronomy, a food writer, and a former International 5 Star Chef.  From the “Wee County” Louth, Dermot was reared in the countryside parish of Monasterboice  on the east coast of Ireland. As a young lad living in a predominantly farmland community, his culinary passion was inspired by youthful memories of huge field mushrooms cooked on the old Aga stove, the taste of fresh, thick cream skimmed from the top of the freshly squeezed bucket of milk, and the aroma and taste of the warm currant bread from neighbouring farm house kitchens.   
Dermot began his culinary exploits at the age of 16 working in the Monasterboice Inn, a place where still today many of the local youth from surrounding parishes continue to be blessed with the opportunity to learn and earn.
Educated and trained in the Dublin Institute of Technology, his profession led him around Ireland and abroad for 16 years to establishments such as the Ballymascanlon Hotel, Ballynahinch Castle, The Copthorne Hotel Gatwick, The Savoy Hotel London, The Palace Hotel, Sun City in South Africa, Smollenskys Restaurants in London, and Mount Juliet Golf & Country Club in Co. Kilkenny. Dermot set up a hospitality consultancy business in London addressing quality assurance within the catering industry and education sector.  He left London as a senior lecturer at Westminster Kingsway College in 2005 returning to live in Monasterboice. He now teaches and continues his consultancy work for his former place of training, the Dublin Institute of Technology.  
This book represents a combination of three important aspects of Dermot’s life promoting the development of local food artisans and their produce, teaching the life skill of ‘how to cook’, and walking the good walk of life.
