Euro-Toques Ireland

Culinary Team Membership
2025-12-16 08:00 - 2026-12-31 17:00 UTC
Culinary Team Membership 2026
A kitchen is never one voice. It is a collective of skills, disciplines, and shared values.
The Culinary Team Membership is designed for restaurants, hotels, and food businesses where cooking is a team effort, and where a shared philosophy guides the work behind every service.
By joining as a team, chefs become part of the Euro-Toques community together, while each individual is recognised for their own craft, commitment, and contribution.
At its heart, this membership supports those who cook with integrity: respecting the seasons, championing local producers, and carrying forward the richness of Irish culinary heritage.
Who it is for

Executive Chefs and Head Chefs
Pastry Chefs
Sous Chefs

A brigade in all its forms – united by standards, curiosity, and care for the product.
How it works

€500 + VAT per year
Includes up to four chefs within the same establishment
Additional Chef Member(s): €100 + VAT per person (purchase here)

Membership is held by the establishment, which nominates the chefs who represent it.
Each chef is recognised as an individual member of Euro-Toques, while remaining part of a wider team.
Beyond Membership
For hotels and larger venues, this is also an opportunity to play a more active role within the community.
Culinary Team Members may be invited to collaborate with Euro-Toques throughout the year – hosting events, gatherings, and key moments in the calendar.
Mount Juliet Estate is the first to join under this model, marking the beginning of a closer partnership between kitchens, places, and the community we are building together.
A simple idea
€500 = a team enters the community
Not as individuals working in isolation,
but as a kitchen that stands for something – together.
