Does the chef at Porterhouse Butcher & Grill have a signature dish?
Porterhouse Butcher and Grill has built an excellent relationship with Peter Hannan, owner of Hannan Meats, which also supplies Fortnum and Mason. Hannan's award-winning beef, for example, is aged for around 45 days in Himalayan salt chambers, to give it a sensational and very unique taste.
Whilst Terry Laybourne, owner of the 21 Hospitality Group, has been offering Himalayan salt-aged beef through his chain of restaurants for some time, Porterhouse is the first retail outlet in the North-east to offer it for sale, with the only other UK retailer being Fortnum and Mason.
