“We are delighted to welcome Andrew as an International Ambassador of Good Food Ireland® in recognition of his vision, creativity and drive in the promotion and development of Irish food overseas. He has effected much change for Ireland’s food scene and created commercial export opportunities for Irish food and drink businesses” Margaret Jeffares, Founder, Good Food Ireland®.

One of the hottest chefs in Singapore, Andrew Walsh is showcasing the best of Irish ingredients at Cure, one of four restaurants he owns in the Garden City. Having left school in Breaffy, Co Mayo at 15, the young teenager couldn’t have imagined the empire he would build halfway across the world. 

Under the helm of the Irishman, CURE reinvented itself, revivifying the concept with what he holds dear — his Irish heritage. ‘Nua’ represents the evolution of Andrew’s own brand of cuisine, where his Irish roots and the food of his childhood takes centre stage, along with culinary techniques and global influences that have been refined over his career. His vision and efforts have proved successful with CURE clinching its first star at the Michelin Guide Singapore 2021 and continuing to retain it in 2022.
