Would you like to use these to serve fabulous wines in, matching them with Michelin star cuisine?
Fraiche is seeking a full time FOH person with rosette/Michelin experience to join our small dedicated team.
Please email us with your details.

Just had one of my best meals for a long time @Joseph_Benjamin. The paella is very, very good. But the burnt basque cheesecake is absolutely unreal. Phenomenal. Thank you @jfran3001 and team. Chapeau 👏 🤝🏻

Stunning Sunday dinner @Joseph_Benjamin today.
Vitello tonnato
13-hour-roast Welsh beef brisket with roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, roast carrots, parsnips and braised red cabbage
And the stunning like no other Basque burnt cheesecake

We’re expanding a little bit and we want YOU to join us.
After a small refurb, we’re due to reopen with a little bit more space (and hopefully a 6 day/week operation) on 11th September (we’re taking over our sister restaurant Joseph Benjamin)….

Having a team around us that handle adversity this well - with such creativity - is so satisfying. Top to bottom - chefs, managers, FOH-teams, and people like builders, electricians and plumbers. People you know will answer the phone. Thanks everyone. Every single one of you.

Looking good for opening at 5.30 tonight (thurs) after last nights electrical fault. We think caused by a loose connection in a fuse board. Electricians working hard to replace all damaged kit & full test.
In the meantime, Porta is open for lunch. Come down and say hi!

Serving this little cracker tonight…. From Porta… cos Jb electrical fault not repairable till tomorrow.
Life’s so flippin mad at the moment. – at Chester, England
⚡️⚡️ Electrical fault ⚡️⚡️
The power is completely off at JB while Dan the sparky works some magic (yay, 2021 is so much fun)
If you’re booked in tonight, please do come next door to Porta. We’ve cobbled together a menu and I’m writing it out by hand.
It’ll probably be great!!
What a lovely list to be included in.
Some seriously good eating-out options in Chester at the moment.

And some people always ‘get’ what we’re aiming for.
@DeannaThomas is one. Thanks a lot for writing this. ☺️👍

We’ll be sad to see @Joseph_Benjamin go and are so glad we got to go over to Chester to try it, but we absolutely love @porta_salford and @porta_alt Best of luck with the changes JB and team tasteofmanchester.com/news/o…
I can barely keep up with the lovely comments after yesterday’s announcement. Thanks everyone - it really means a lot.
Sounds like we’re all agreed it’s a good plan!!!
