It’s the ideal spot for grabbing lunch al fresco.

As the weather starts to warm up, The Cork International Hotel has launched a new food truck, operated by the hotel’s chefs.

The New Yorker On The Go in the Airport Business Park will cater to businesses in the surrounding area, offering a selection of sweet treats and sandwiches using locally sourced ingredients.

The menu includes three different types of hot pressed sandwiches (buttered on both sides) including the Cubano (West Cork pulled pork, gammon, house mustard, shaved pickles and Hegarty cheddar), the Monster Munster (Cheese trio of Smoked Gubbeen, Ardsallagh Goat and Hegarty cheddar, pickle jalapeno and tomato mayo) and the Tremendous Chuck (English Market poached chicken, soy mayo, Asian cabbage, pickled coronado chilli and crispy onions).

There will be a chef’s weekly salad and three sweet treats including iced carrot cake, lemon and raspberry slice and chocolate fudge brownie.

“The head chef and his team take great pride in their menus and use the freshest of ingredients from suppliers from around Cork and surrounding counties,” said Eoghan Murphy, General Manager of the Cork International Hotel.

“These will be used to create a grab-and-go menu at the food truck which will offer the hundreds of people working in this area an alternative lunch offering that they can bring back to the office or enjoy outside when the weather is good.”

The food truck will be open outside the hotel every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 10am to 2pm. FYI: Payment is by card only.
