Their cookbook which has been a massive success since it launched earlier this year is the first from the pair who’ve hopes of opening a cafe and continuing to dish out Currabinny goods like they do at various farmers markets throughout Ireland.

William resonated James’ words saying that he is “LITERALLY SHAKING! so proud, so honoured!”

Many stars were in attendance last night for the prestigeous awards, including Graham Norton who flew in for the event.
