Dublin’s award-winning healthy hot spot Tiller and Grain’s latest seasonal offering includes a new ‘Tiller + Trip’ Staycation Box that allows fans of their flavour-packed feel-good food to put their feet up and enjoy a well-deserved break from cooking as they head away on holiday.
Freshly filled with a feast of ready-to-eat gourmet goodies that will sustain your group for breakfast, brunch/lunch, and dinner, plus post-activity snacks throughout your getaway, their ‘Tiller + Trip’ Staycation Boxes allow for effortless relaxation – bringing a whole new level of meaning to the word luxury.
A proud champion of local farmers and suppliers ever since she opened her doors in 2019, Tiller and Grain’s Owner and former Ottolenghi-trained Chef, Clair Dowling, is widely admired for her cheerful rainbow-coloured salads and dedication to good nutrition. In keeping with her ethos, Clair has created a wholesome menu for the Staycation Boxes that showcases the very best of in-season Irish ingredients and caters for groups of varying sizes; couples, families of four, and gatherings as large as six.
Freshly picked organic produce for Tiller + Grain’s signature salads and vibrant dips is sourced from McNally’s Family Farm in Co. Dublin and Beechlawn Organic Farm in Ballinasloe, Co. Galway. Quality cuts of meat are supplied by award-winning Butchers, J.J. Young and Sons, in Clane, Co. Kildare. And, it goes without saying that all of the seductive sweet treats in their ‘Tiller + Trip’ Boxes are handmade in-house using Irish butter; seasonal Irish fruits, and premium Callebaut dark chocolate.
