The Carton House Cookbook

The Carton House Cookbook is the first cookbook from Carton House, a Fairmont Hotel in Maynooth, Co. Kildare, written by Executive Chef Gary Rogers. It brings together recipes from across the estate, from Michelin-starred dishes to afternoon tea pastries, and is available from The Stables Giftshop from 29 October, with a book signing by Chef Gary Rogers.

The book celebrates the culinary journey Chef Gary Rogers and his kitchen brigade have created at Carton House. Inside, you’ll find recipes from every corner of the Carton experience: refined dishes from our Michelin-starred dining, favourites from our restaurants, delicate afternoon tea pastries and much-loved classics.

Behind every recipe is a team whose passion, precision and imagination create exceptional food every day. The book shares the flavours, techniques and stories behind each dish, so you can recreate a little of Carton House at your own table.
