Thesis DIT by Mairtin Mac Con Iomaire, 2009. 3 downloadable volumes. ). Part 2, p. 348〕 The kitchen style of Ballymaloe House is Modern Irish. In 1964 the Allen family, who had inherited the Ballymaloe estate, converted the old dining room into a restaurant. They named the restaurant ''The Yeats Room''. In 1967 the first few rooms were converted into hotel rooms, to accommodate guests who liked to stay. Later still the Ballymaloe Cookery School was established. In the time ''Ballymaloe House'' was awarded the Michelin star, Myrtle Allen was the head chef. Since at least 2008, Jason Fahey has been the joint head chef. Around 2011, he was joined in that role by Gillian Hegarty. ==History of the house== The oldest parts in the present Ballymaloe House can be traced back to an Anglo-Norman castle built on this site around 1450. The castle was held by members of the Desmond FitzGerald families, of Cloyne, particularly Sir John FitzEdmund FitzGerald.〔(Ballymaloe House – History May 23, 2012 by Annemarie Foley )〕〔Fitzgerald, John Fitzedmund (1528-1612) (DNB00) wikisource〕 After many demolition works and rebuilding, most of the present building was completed in 1820. In 1990 and 2000 limited works were done on the building.〔(History )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ballymaloe House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
