Concurrent with changes in food safety and freshness, the farm-to-table movement continues to gather steam throughout the world. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ballymaloe House <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ballymaloe House is a Michelin rated restaurant located in County Cork, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bobeckmedia.com\/aesu\/aesu-world-travel\/health-long-life-irish-whiskey\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ireland<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Originally the home of Myrtle and Ivan Allen, the couple opened their doors as a public restaurant and guesthouse in 1964. The oldest parts of the house can be traced back to 1450, but most of the present building was completed in 1820. The house sits on 300 acres, and the menu changes daily according to the seasonal vegetables cultivated on the farm. The Ballymaloe house remains a quintessential example of Irish Country cuisine. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ballymaloe Experience <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ballymaloe House takes their food seriously. The menu is based on food from their own farms and local farmers. Local producers supply the Ballymaloe kitchen with poultry, ducks, geese, and more. Aside from the fruits and vegetables that grow rapidly throughout the farm, the Ballymaloe house keeps their own free-range hens and free-range pigs as well. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guests are also welcome to stay in one of the many rooms in the main house. Described as simple and elegant, Ballymaloe House accommodations offer beautiful views over the lush Irish country fields. Enjoy tea by the fire, or simply relax in the conservatory filled flowers and fresh herbs. <\/span><\/p>\n<h1><b>Experience Ireland With AESU<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/res.aesu.com\/stw\/stwdirectory.aspx?theme=aesu&amp;groupid=aesu-main\"><b>AESU <\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">offers unique, thrilling travel programs for college students and young professionals at affordable rates.
