“I’m still divorcing my husband, but he has said he will back me up with cash to help me with the business. He say I should do something with my life and I do love food. I’m thinking Greek food, but after discussing what people like it may be mediterranean or even vegetarian. But it will be hard to have a menu without a piece of meat on,” she told Manchester Evening News.
“My idea was a champagne bar, with drinks but it won’t earn any money. Because in this industry you need to serve food to earn the money,” she continued. “I like the name Esteraunt - it’s a little bit cheeky and different. I’m going around feeding, feeding, feeding people. And I get their feedback on what they think.”
Ester reveals that it has been harder than she thought to find the right location and right concept - the blonde bombshell admits she's currently looking in Wilmslow and Prestbury.
“I look in Wilmslow and Prestbury. I thought you open a restaurant, you need about £40,000 to start it up but I think it maybe more than that. I will design the menu and be in the restaurant full time, but I wouldn’t do the cooking. My dad has a restaurant in Czech Republic, so there is a little bit in me,” she told Manchester Evening News. “I used to work in fish and chip shop so I know that industry. I need to set something for my future for my daughter and for my mum. Hopefully people would come and nosy around, meet me and eat and drink.”
“For a long time it was all about Ester, Ester, Ester, but I feel I’ve finally found my place in the group so I can sit back a little bit. We’re all very comfortable with each other. I’m no longer the new girl,” she added. “The new girls are very loud and opinionated, and that’s what we like.”
