My daughter Martha and her husband, John had their opening night at Behind The Plate. Owning and operating their own restaurant has been their dream, and it has finally come true.
Martha is a chef. She has worked in all responsibilities of a kitchen, from sushi to burgers to turkey dinners, to t-bone steaks. She has even done restaurant kitchen based 100% on forage for the menu.
John started in Bartending and has managed chains, event venues, and high end restaurants. He has managed purchasing for food and alcohol, he has managed personnel, training, hiring and firing.
They have the right skill set, the right passion, and last night was opening night. A Wednesday, their first customer was 15 meals. They were filled to capacity by 6 pm. Standing room only until 8pm. Five star reviews from customers. A great beginning.
Ever in Portsmouth NH Stop by Behind the Plate and give my girl a shout out.
