Catherine Fulvio (née Byrne) is an Irish TV chef, food writer, author, and proprietor of Ballyknockan House and Cookery School.[1][2][3]

Early life

Catherine Fulvio was born and raised at Ballyknockan House in Glenealy, County Wicklow. Fulvio is the second eldest of four children, along with her brothers, Paul and Karl, and her sister Eithne. She and her siblings were raised on a farm at Ballyknockan, where they regularly helped with daily farm work. Fulvio attributes her love of food to loving food.[2][4][5]

Career

Since 2004, Catherine Fulvio has been the principal proprietor of Ballyknockan House Bed & Breakfast, which she later extended to include Ballyknockan Cookery School. She has since gone on to host regular cooking classes in the school and fund-raising cookery events. Fulvio is a TV personality in Ireland, the UK, and the US, and has authored multiple cookbooks.[2][6][4]

TV work

Fulvio has hosted and featured on several cooking-related TV shows, both in Ireland and abroad. She was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Culinary Host[7] for the US TV series "A Taste of Ireland" on Recipe TV.[8] Fulvio has also featured in other TV shows, including:

Cookbooks

Personal life

Fulvio is married to Claudio, who hails from Palermo in Sicily, Italy. They have two children.[1][6]

After the death of her mother, Fulvio took over the management of the Ballyknocken House Bed & Breakfast,[23] a 4-star Victorian-style guesthouse located in Wicklow, 47 km from Dublin. Customers would often ask her how she made various dishes for the BNB meals, and from this, she got the idea to open a cookery school. The Ballyknocken Cookery School was opened in 2004 on the grounds of Ballyknocken House. Ballyknocken House & Cookery School remains open to this day and offers guests relaxing weekend breaks, cookery classes, and nearby access to Wicklow beauty spots such as Glendalough and Brittas Bay.[24] As a result of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, Ballyknocken had to temporarily close the doors of both the B&B and Cookery School. Fulvio made the most of the situation by recording all of her cookery classes and making them available as online cooking classes through her website.[4][22]
