Kitchen Hero, Donal Skehan brings his live HomeCooked Tour back to Dublin this weekend. During the show, you get to see our Kitchen Hero 'cook up a storm' live on stage, with lots of fun and loads of food, to keep the audience laughing and drooling along the way, as he shows just how easy it is to serve delicious homecooked food every day for all to enjoy.
