About Port Sa’id
In 2010, a team of DJs and music lovers decided to establish a radio station and bar called Teder.FM and broadcast it from the courtyard outside the Great Synagogue in Tel Aviv.
This place quickly evolved into a destination for those who love music, with people sitting outside for hours to witness this one of a kind of sound system and fresh music selection. After Teder.FM moved from its original home, the team decided to collaborate with Eyal Shani on a new project in this space. To the Teder.FM team, Eyal was more like a poet than a chef, and they saw a similarity between their passion for music and his passion for food. And thus, Port Sa’id was born.
The unique collaboration between Chef Eyal Shani and Teder.FM made Port Sa’id one of the first places to combine the sounds of a hi-fi listening bar and the food of a creative, produce-driven restaurant. With an ever changing menu and artfully curated vinyl from the restaurant's library and private collections, Port Sa’id is an immersive dining experience unlike any other. After a decade of success in Tel Aviv, it’s only fitting that Port Sa'id has made its way to New York, a city that is bursting at the seams with music and flavors from all over the world.
Chef Eyal Shani
Chef Eyal Shani was born in Jerusalem in 1959. His culinary passion was first instilled in him by his grandfather, an agronomist and a dedicated vegan, who exposed him to local markets, fields, and vineyards from a young age. In 1989, he opened his first restaurant "Oceanus" in his home town of Jerusalem. There, he developed a unique culinary language based on regional Mediterranean products: olive oil, fish, tahini, fresh seasonal vegetables and of course, the tomato.
Joined by his partner, Shahar Segal, the duo operates HaSalon, North Abraxas, North Miznon, Lilienblum, SHMONÉ, Bella, Miznon, Port Sa'id, Romano, Mirage, Malka, Dvorah and their sister restaurants around the globe.

In Sheep's Clothing Hi-Fi
Years before In Sheep’s Clothing’s first listening bar opened in the Arts District, the team visited Port Sa’id, a space that would deeply inspire them on their journey to launching In Sheep’s Clothing. It was one of the first times the ISC team experienced vinyl and analogue culture integrated so seamlessly into a restaurant and bar setting. Realizing ISC and Port Sa’id shared many of the same ideas and approaches to music, food, and analogue culture, they made plans for a future collaboration.
