The easiest task in Kenmare is finding out just where all the food lovers in the town are hanging out. It’s easy, because Le Tout-Kenmare can be found in Maison Gourmet. At any time of the day, the cool cats from the town and the peninsula are congregated in Emma and Patrick’s chic shabby rive gauche bakery and coffee shop, soaking up the cool vibes, relishing the superb baking, enjoying being a part of the dynamism of this essential destination. Great breads and patisserie may be the draw at Maison Gourmet, but in truth it is so much more than just a place for eating. Instead, it is a place where you go to immerse yourself in the culture of food, to revel in the pleasure of respecting and appreciating great things to eat, made by hand, made with care, fashioned with passion. Order a flat white and a slice of red velvet cake, then sit and enjoy the atmosphere in Maison Gourmet for just five minutes, and you will feel that you are in the centre of the universe. And make sure to bring a boule home with you, to make the MG feeling linger for as long as possible.
