Jason O'Neill, head chef and co-owner at Fawn in Oranmore, where the menu is led by fire. This is a list designed to be drunk and enjoyed, not to underwrite the kitchen. Ogl was head sommelier at three-Michelin-star Hiša Franko, and that experience is written all over Fawn’s wine list, with notable depth in bottles from her native Hungary. The wine list sets the terms of the evening early, and the menu follows by organising itself around the grill, where the kitchen is most assured. Fawn Restaurant Oranmore, Co Galway.
