awards, which take place at the Convention Centre on Monday, February 9, The Chef Sessions is a loose, walkable series of one-off collaborations, pop-ups and late-night gatherings taking place across the city centre.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">The programme brings together chefs including Mark Moriarty, C\u00fa\u00e1n Greene and Rob Krawczyk with venues such as Hang Dai, Row Wines, Frank\u2019s Wine Bar, Bar 1661, Rei Momo and Sister 7, creating what organisers describe as a \u201cloose, walkable trail of food events over the weekend\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root

basket and breakfast muffins to toasties and discoed Chinese, the programme trades formality for fun, offering a festival-style trail of events from Saturday night through to Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">The sessions kick off on Saturday evening at Rei Momo on Drury Street, where Marcus O\u2019Laoire teams up with Thom Lawson for a modern take on the

generations of Irish nights out, the event centres on a Brazilian-inspired chicken in a basket served, crucially, without the lights coming up or the music going down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\"

homage to the Copenhagen street food that sustains many young chefs cutting their teeth in the city\u2019s famed kitchens.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"C\u00fa\u00e1n Greene\"

through the weekend, with Mark Moriarty joining forces with Egan\u2019s and Bar 1661 for what\u2019s billed as \u201cThe Mother of All Breakfasts in the Hand\u201d, a high-end riff on the breakfast muffin, served with cocktails and coffee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">On the afternoon of the awards ceremony, Michelin-starred chef Rob Krawczyk of Restaurant Chestnut in Ballydehob will join Row Wines for a toastie pop-up in the city centre, offering sandwiches and wine for a limited time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary
