French Food Fair On The Square - Saturday 11th of October 2014



Today is the day! I finally get to talk to you about a project I’ve been working on for a while now… I’m delighted to announce ‘French Food Fair On The Square’ in conjunction with Merrion Square Innovation Network and kindly supported by the awesome people at Irish Village Markets.


'French Food Fair on The Square' will take place on Saturday 11th of October from 10 am to 6pm at the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland, no. 63 Merrion Square Dublin 2.
