Chef José Chesa, a 2016 James Beard award semifinalist for Best Chef Northwest, opens his second Spanish restaurant Chesa, alongside business partners, his wife, Cristina Baéz and Emily Metivier, in February 2016. The second-generation chef and restaurateur will offer his version of traditional Spanish dishes and paellas all prepared in a modern Josper charcoal oven. The restaurant, named for his father José Chesa Senior, celebrates family and its connection with food, from the menu of charcoal-infused dishes to its decor. A full service traditional stand up tapas bar will grace the east wall of the restaurant, offering a signature cocktail menu developed by bartender Dani Frosh as well as a variety of Spanish sherry, vermut cocktails, new sangrias, and a grand reserve wine list curated by partner/general manager Metivier with the help of José's father. The restaurant is adjacent to the recently opened 180, Portland's first xurro bar, also owned by chef Chesa and business partners Cristina Baéz and David Martin. Chesa will offer dinner service Tuesday to Saturday from 5 to 10 p.m. Address 2218 NE Broadway St.,Portland Ore. 97232
