Description

Niall Sabongi is on a mission to change how we eat, and think about, seafood in Ireland. A chef and seafood entrepreneur, Niall was frustrated by stuffy restaurants and a broken fishing system, and he set out to do things differently. He opened a string of relaxed, seafood-focused eateries and later launched Sustainable Seafood Ireland, a wholesale business dedicated to sourcing the best wild Irish catch while supporting responsible fishing practices.
 
 In this episode of Food Matters, Niall talks to Mick Kelly of GIY about the deep cultural roots of Ireland’s uneasy relationship with seafood, why seasonality and quotas matter, and how good food can also be good for the planet.
