The Church is Burning Down

Sunday, April 9th, 2006

Heres an exclusive via Steven in Skibbereen: some time in the next hour or so, the Church Restaurant will be a smouldering heap.

The Church attracted some interest when it opened a couple of years ago, by the well known owner of Currans on Adelaide Street in Cork. Currans is a restaurant with a twist, as it is made up of radiators, staircase, tables, etc., which all came from well known Cork landmarks (cinemas, hospitals, schools) that were closed down. The Church has a gimmick of its own - as the name would imply, the restaurant is (was) inside a church.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
