Cornwall-born Jordan Bailey and his Danish wife, Majken Bech Christensen, a front of house manager, will open Aimsir, a 24-seat restaurant, at Cliff at Lyons near Celbridge this autumn.
They have been living in Ireland for the past six months, and are renting a house in Naas.September is being suggested as the likely opening date, according to the Irish Times.
The restaurant will use only seasonal Irish indigenous ingredients, and will have an unusual layout, with the kitchen being located within the dining space.

The pass, where dishes will be finished and plated before being delivered to diners by the chefs, will be centre-stage, in the middle of the room.
