So... the food at Kai is great, we all know that, there are some funny accents on Sea Road, and plenty to be found in Kai itself.
That may have something to do with Jessica Murphy, Head Chef, and owner who was born and raised in the middle of nowhere in New Zealand. Along with her husband David, together they opened Kai, a place with a moral sensibility and a commitment to a better culinary world. What is it that makes the food of Jessica Murphy so great? Voted the best chef in Connacht by Food and Wine, Jess has worked in some of the finest kitchens and offered up the highest standards of food. Originally from New Zealand she made Ireland her home working for Kevin Thornton, the Michelin starred chef. The love and passion Jessica has for food is easily reflected in her daily menu at Kai.

Transforming an Irish Urban Forest into a Wildlife Sanctuary & Eco-Community Resource of National & International Significance.
-->Terryland Forest Park in Galway city is a unique natural resource within Ireland, a parkland of over 100,000 native Irish trees in the heart of a modern city that was initially developed and managed when it started in 2000 by an active partnership of Galway city council, neighbourhood communities, artists, state agencies and environmentalists in an ambitious endeavour to create a harmonious blend of outdoor leisure amenities for all ages and of wildlife sanctuaries that would form a vital ecological corridor (‘Green Highway’) linking into areas of prime biodiversity importance across the west of Ireland.
With climate change, deforestation, loss of wildlife habitats and the sedentary lifestyles becoming issues of growing concern to governments, scientists and ordinary people worldwide, the realisation of this urban forest park came at an opportune time. A programme of work for 2012/2013 will be discussed and agreed upon. All are welcome to attend.
