2025 Award Winners ‘MOVERS & SHAKERS’ AWARD 2025

Eunice Power, ...AndChips, Dungarvan, Co Waterford

“Not your average chipper” is how Eunice Power describes her stylish fish and chip restaurant on the quays of Dungarvan, and it would be hard to put it better. With its elegant frontage, striking signage and seasonal floral displays, …And Chips immediately signals that this is something special – and, with its short menus, exceptionally careful sourcing (sustainable wild Irish fish from trusted local suppliers), and every flavourful dish freshly cooked from scratch - the food confirms it. A powerhouse of energy and creativity, she ran the much-loved Powersfield House for many years before focusing on outside catering. In 2019 she spotted an opening for a quality fast-food outlet and launched …And Chips, bringing her uncompromising commitment to seasonality and provenance to a new audience. But catering and running…AndChips are just two strings in Eunice Power’s well-packed bow of enterprises. Eunice is one of Ireland’s most respected chefs, a familiar voice on RTÉ and – importantly - co-founder of the West Waterford Festival of Food, which owes its immense success in no small part to her dedicated input. A true ambassador for Dungarvan and Irish food, Eunice Power continues to inspire with her vision, hard work and integrity – a true Mover & Shaker if ever there was one, the region – and Ireland - is lucky to have her.
