Chester Northgate set to be new home of Maray restaurant
Maray, the independent, Liverpool-born restaurant group known for its vibrant Middle Eastern-via-Paris inspired sharing plates, carefully chosen wines and exceptional cocktails, will open at Chester's Northgate this winter. Taking inspiration from the Parisian arrondissement of Le Marais, a neighbourhood renowned for its bustling charm and queue-worthy falafel, Maray is already recognised as a go-to destination for exciting dishes and great atmosphere in both Liverpool and Manchester. Co-founder and managing director James Bates said: 'We're absolutely thrilled to be bringing our fourth Maray site to Chester. 'It's a city I have previously worked in and long admired, and we feel it shares a lot of the same spirit and character that made us fall in love with our first site in Bold Street. 'We can't wait to open the doors and become part of the community.' Tom White, co-founder and brand director said: 'We've worked closely with Cheshire West and Chester Council to find this lovely building and we're grateful for their support as we prepare to arrive. 'It's a really spacious site and we've got a surprise or two up our sleeves to bring something fresh and new to the people of Chester.' The new restaurant will feature a menu of long standing favourites such as the Disco Cauliflower; a much loved explosion of crisp cauliflower, harissa, tahini, zhug, pomegranate and sumac, their famous falafel, and Instagram's darling – a Medjool date bread and butter pudding. Maray also makes room for regular seasonal specials which are all served in the much-celebrated sharing style that sits at the heart of the Maray experience. Councillor Nathan Pardoe, Cabinet Member for Inclusive Economy, Regeneration and Digital Transformation, said: 'The arrival of Maray in Northgate is great news for Chester, bringing an innovative and fresh culinary concept to the city and creating new jobs. 'Thank you to Maray for choosing Chester to expand their business.' Tom Prescott, from Barker Proudlove, acted on behalf of the council and added: 'We are delighted to be able to secure Maray for Chester Northgate. Read more 'They have been a long-term target for the development and provide a strong fit by elevating the tenant mix while offering something new to the scheme.' The new opening will create jobs, from senior management down to entry-level positions and those interested in working on the exciting new launch are encouraged to get in touch via the careers page on the Maray website at The restaurant will open in the winter of 2025/2026 – you can sign up here for updates and information on the soft launch and opening events

The globally renowned cook is known around the world for his innovative cooking techniques. Born in Israel, he established his career in Sydney where he became famous for his signature take on Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. This includes his special flavour combinations which he uses in his grilling, roasting aging approaches and long bread fermentations. He co-founded the famous Nour Restaurant in Sydney before he moved to the US. The star later partnered with well established chefs, Tim Hollingsworth (French Laundry) and Chard Robinson (Tartine Bakery). However, after four years of business for his restaurant in London, the final service is reportedly taking place on 7th August. The upmarket establishment also features an all-day bakery and a basement bar called Layla. However, according to the restaurant's own website the Jeru Bakery will be closed from the 14th July. However, the notice states that this will be "for the summer period". Celebrity chef closes down seaside restaurant after 16 years The Sun has contacted representatives of the restaurant for comment who confirmed the closure. Culture platform Loti reports that many restaurants have faced problems due to increased VAT and National Insurance contributions. This has apparently led to staffing issues on top of existing rising rent and energy costs for small businesses. Jeru is also known for its social media presence, with the restaurant boasting over 20,000 followers on Instagram.

US Gulf refiners seek MidEast, S.American oil to offset Venezuela, Mexico losses
HOUSTON, July 24 (Reuters) - U.S. Gulf Coast refiners are snapping up higher volumes of Middle Eastern and South American crudes to offset the loss of Venezuelan and Mexican barrels, according to ship tracking data, a workaround solution that might be short-lived if the U.S. allows some sanctioned Venezuelan crude to return to the market. The shake-up in trade flows reflects a shortage of medium and heavy crude grades at the key Gulf Coast refining hub which has struggled in recent months to secure adequate supplies amid Mexican production and quality challenges, and Washington's pressure strategy on Venezuela's sanctioned energy industry. The U.S. Treasury Department in March revoked key licenses that allowed some companies to export Venezuelan oil and fuel to the U.S. after President Donald Trump criticized the OPEC nation's record on migration and democracy. However, the administration is now preparing to grant new authorizations to key partners of Venezuela's state-run PDVSA to allow them to operate with limitations, which could include oil swaps, five sources close to the matter said this week. The U.S. imported about 175,000 barrels per day (bpd) of Venezuelan crude on average this year before the licenses were revoked, accounting for about 16% of Gulf Coast oil imports, according to data from research firm Kpler. Meanwhile, imports of popular Mexican heavy grade Maya have fallen to 172,000 bpd so far in July, the lowest on record due to declining output and quality issues that have cut interest in the grade. To replace those volumes, Gulf Coast refiners are resorting to other South American producers such as Colombia, Brazil and Guyana, with imports in July reaching the highest in over five years. Shipments of heavy, high-sulfur crude from Colombia, including Castilla and Vasconia grades, more than doubled to 225,000 bpd so far in July, the highest monthly level in three years. In the same period, some refiners also stepped up imports of medium, lower sulfur, crudes from Guyana such as Unity Gold and Payara Gold to about 95,000 bpd, while heavy, high-sulfur oil from Brazil, including Peregrino, rose 58% to 57,000 bpd. Gulf Coast imports of oil from the Middle East, mainly Iraqi Qaiyarah, Kuwait's Eocene and Saudi Arabia's medium sour Arab Light, also ramped up sharply this month to 212,000 bpd, the highest since January. The bulk of the crude oil produced in the United States is light and low in sulfur, not ideal for refineries in the U.S. Gulf that typically prefer to process heavier oil. Switching to crude grades of vastly different characteristics can be operationally challenging and limit production, shrinking margins. If sanctioned Venezuelan oil returns to the U.S. market through the Washington-authorized swaps, many Gulf Coast refiners might again switch to their preferred heavy grades, which helps their margins.
