These occasions of great joy would have taken place in the Whistledown and the other venues in Warrenpoint and beyond only for this wretched pandemic.
This has been a stressful period for all of the hospitality businesses in our area.
But it’s something we all have had to do and anything that can make it a bit easier is surely welcomed.
Cooking during the Lockdown

All this time at home gives us the chance to brush up on our culinary skills (or for some of us just to get started with cooking).
Indeed many of us during this time are planning meals with a lot more focus due to the social distancing at supermarkets and the time to enjoy the actual cooking experience.
It’s great to go online and get some tips from the celebrity chefs but it’s even better to get some tips from some of the best local chefs as we work through these challenging times.
