Streetsmart is an initiative by the Simon Communities in Cork, Galway and Dundalk, which proposes to restaurant diners that they make a contribution of €2 per table to their local Simon Community over Christmas. Nine Cork restaurants have signed up: Blair's Inn, Cafe Paradiso, Continental Restaurant, Crawford Gallery Cafe, Hardwood Restaurant, Jacques, Les Gourmandises, Robert's Cove Inn and Star Anise, and we hope others will follow.
But do bear these nine in mind when booking your Christmas party. Here is a short movie of John McKenna launching the campaign in Cafe Paradiso, alongside Assistant Director of Cork Simon, Aaron O'Connell.
