About Michel Portos

A native of Marseilles in Southern France, Michel honed his craft in local restaurants before launching his Côté Théâtre restaurant in Perpignan in 1998. Three years after opening, Michel’s talent and culinary creativity was rewarded with the highest honor: in 2001, he received his first Michelin star. 

A year later, Michel was approached to become Chef and Director of Bordeaux’s celebrated Saint-James Hotel. Audaciously creative, Michel overhauled the menu, introducing exotic flavors and dispensing with traditional dishes. “Traditional cooking is done very well by local artisans,” he explains. “A gastronomic restaurant must be creative.”
Michel Portos’ cuisine is “sincere, intense and impertinent… It sets out new directions for the diner in the 21st century who isn’t just content to enjoy the gourmet experience but also looks for the cultural and aesthetic sense of the dish.”
Once again Michel’s epicurean boldness and imaginative menu were rewarded and in 2009 he earned his second Michelin star.

Borrowing from Asian and Mediterranean influences, Michel’s cuisine surprises and excites with its delicately proportioned tastes and deft use of herbs and spices. Michel interprets acid flavors with masterful dexterity, blending citrus fruits and vinegars to introduce a zesty element to the balance.
