A Michelin-Starred Evening at Pichet Restaurant in Dublin: Friends of Pichet with Chef Stefan McEnteer

On Sunday 6th April 2025, Pichet hosted an unforgettable evening as part of its acclaimed Friends of Pichet series, welcoming Michelin-starred chef Stefan McEnteer of The Bishop’s Buttery at Cashel Palace for an evening of fine dining in Dublin. The exclusive collaboration with Pichet’s Executive Head Chef Harry Quinn celebrated Irish produce, refined technique, and creative synergy between two of Ireland’s most exciting chefs.

Stefan McEnteer’s presence in the kitchen brought a remarkable level of precision, creativity, and calm. As Head Chef of the Michelin-starred Bishop’s Buttery, his reputation for balancing bold Irish ingredients with classical finesse was on full display. Each dish in the six-course menu reflected Stefan’s deep connection to the land and his ability to extract purity and depth from every element. This was a menu crafted with intention, restraint, and exceptional skill, a true showcase of why Stefan is one of the most exciting chefs in Irish gatronomy today.

Held in the heart of Dublin City Centre, Pichet once again proved why it remains one of the best French restaurants in Dublin and a long-standing favourite among those searching for restaurants in Dublin City Centre. With over 16 years of holding a Michelin Bib Gourmand, Pichet continues to lead the way in fine dining in Dublin.


A Night of Refined Dining and Creative Collaboration

Stefan’s six-course tasting menu was a showcase of Irish ingredients elevated through classical technique. The evening began with elegant canapé-style snacks: croustade with cured trout, dill buttermilkand Cais na Tíre gougères, followed by Stefan’s signature starter: Balfego Tuna with apple, sorrel, radish and kombu. A clean, balanced plate that plays on freshness and a balanced expression of land and sea, these opening plates were paired with Crémant de Limoux Brut Rosé and a crisp Sancerre.

The fish course featured Black Sole with Oscietra caviar, mussel, leek and vin jaune – a luxurious and precise plate, paired with a mineral-rich Bourgogne Blanc.

For the main course, Tipperary lamb with morel, wild garlic, spears of Irish asparagus and sheep’s yogurt brought a sense of spring to the plate. A spring-forward dish celebrating the depth of Irish produce — earthy, bright and precisely composed. Paired with Château Puynard Bordeaux, it was earthy, elegant and deeply satisfying.

To Start – A Cocktail for Love

Your romantic dinner begins with the Love Potion, a playful and elegant cocktail featuring Absolut Vodka, Raspberry Liqueur, Grenadine, and a refreshing combination of soda water, fresh raspberries, blackberries, and rosemary. It’s the perfect way to toast the evening and set the tone for what’s to come.

Snacks – Little Bites of Joy

The meal kicks off with some irresistible snacks that include house-made Focaccia served with rich olive oil and aged balsamic, alongside a Gougere of Leek filled with 24-month Comté and Black Winter Truffle. These indulgent bites are the perfect prelude to the main courses and are guaranteed to get your taste buds tingling.

Starters – Decadent and Delicious

For starters, you’ll have several options, each more tempting than the last. Try the Cod and Chorizo Croquettes, paired with a tangy confit jalapeno mayo, or indulge in the rich flavours of Terrine of Ring Farm Chicken and Smoked Ham Hock, with gribiche sauce, house pickles, and toasted sourdough. If you prefer seafood, the Roaring Water Bay Mussels in Café de Paris butter broth, served with grilled focaccia, will transport you straight to the coast.

For the main course, Pichet’s team has pulled out all the stops. The Barbary Duck Breast is served alongside a smoky lentil and sausage cassoulet, with celeriac and duck pudding adding layers of flavour and texture. If venison is more your style, the Loin of Wicklow Venison paired with pomme purée, roasted carrots, and a rich Bourgignon sauce will leave you speechless. For seafood lovers, the Roasted Monkfish with purple sprouting broccoli, mussels, and wild garlic is a fresh and flavour-packed option. And for those preferring a vegetarian option, the Parmesan Agnolotti with roasted Jerusalem artichoke and basil-hazelnut pesto is nothing short of divine.

Sides – Perfect Accompaniments

No meal is complete without the right sides, and Pichet offers some exceptional choices. Treat yourself to Roasted Crown Prince Pumpkin with chilli and seed rayu, or indulge in Roasted Cauliflower with miso butter and hazelnut. You can also enjoy the classic Chips, crispy and golden for a simple but satisfying addition.

Desserts – Sweet Endings

Finally, the meal concludes with an indulgent dessert. The Warm 70% Chocolate Mousse with salted caramel, coffee ice cream, and white chocolate crumb is a rich, decadent treat. Alternatively, the White Chocolate and Blackberry Cheesecake with blackberry sorbet is a refreshing and tangy option, or you can finish off with the Rhubarb Financier, served with bay leaf anglaise and brown butter ice cream.
