    The VIP packs each include an entry ticket, a VIP wristband and a VIP lanyard for access to the Champagne Taittinger VIP Suite in association with Celebrity Cruises. Each lanyard contains a voucher for a complimentary Dublin Amber Pale Ale, a luxury Lindt chocolate and a glass of Champagne Taittinger!

    My favourite dish to make and also eat is Salmon en Cro?te with dill. I first made it in Home Economics class in Transition Year and it's a winner to this day, some 20 years later.

    My new favourite is a big bowl of strawberries, a few tablespoons of greek yoghurt (coconut flavour works well) and a smidge of honey - delish!

    My favourite dish to cook is a creamy tarragon chicken pasta. It's really quick and simple but tastes amazing. It's also one of my favourites because I learned to cook it from the best chef I know-my Grandad.

    You just can't beat a Sunday roast - what we all head home for! A few slices of roast beef, crispy roast potatoes, yorkshire pudding, carrots, peas and broccoli and all lathered in thick smooth gravy. Heartwarming and comforting food is what it's all about!
