– Copenhagen – A Family Outing by Rosie Setterfield Price
Once upon a time Port Street, Common and the Beagle sent their champions forth to make a foray into the far away land of the Danes for the Copenhagen Beer Festival. They were intent on the researching of excellent beers and breweries, selflessly putting themselves in the way of danger (largely in the form of flight related traumas and hangovers) to better enhance their beery knowledge and thereby (if possible) improve upon the repertoire available to their valued customers.
Despite many woes and much hardship (some of us really don’t like flying, cyclists in Copenhagen are somewhat vicious and the ginger contingent may have gotten sunburnt to some extent) they were victorious! Hereafter follows the tale (in beers) of one adventurer’s journey…

– Port Street Pop Ups with Chaat Cart – Thursday 16th May
This Thursday 16th May we welcome the launch of our regular Port Street Pop Ups, first up we have Chaat Cart. They will be providing excellent organic Indian street foods, here are a few words about their wonderful food :
“Inspired by my childhood in India and travels around South Asia, Chaat Cart was born. We make Indian street food, (seriously addictive) dishes found on the streets of India, also called chaat. Chaat is a roadside snack usually sold from a cart, often wrapped in newspaper but always delicious! There are loads of different varieties found all over India, we focus on a handful and try to do justice to the legions of original chaat-wallahs. All our dishes are freshly made to order and just happen to be vegetarian.”
Chaat Cart Menu for Thursday 16th May / 6pm :
Masala Dosa – Watch yours being made! A south Indian street food dish, a dosa is a savoury crepe made from a batter of rice and black lentils. A Masala dosa is made by stuffing a dosa with a spiced potatoes filling (naturally gluten-free).
Indian Snack box – the best vegetable Samosa in Manchester, Vada – a savoury lentil doughnut, Pakora – everyone’s favourite onion fritters. Served in a box with Aarti’s homemade chutneys!
… Close your eyes and you are on Chowpatty Beach!
