Ghanaian actress and entrepreneur Portia Asare Boateng is celebrating the massive impact of social media after her new business took off far beyond her expectations! In a recent post on X from her verified account, she shared her genuine surprise and gratitude:
“I never knew social media was this powerful until I started posting my business online. The orders are now more than I can handle. Thank y’all🙏”
The post resonated widely, drawing thousands of likes, reposts, and views in a matter of hours — a fitting demonstration of the very thing she was marvelling at.
Portia’s restaurant, De Klinic, is based at Adenta Housing opposite Melcom in Accra, and specialises in homemade Ghanaian meals, with Efie Fufu among the standout offerings.
Since the wave of attention, her pages have been filled with videos of satisfied customers, behind-the-counter moments, and warm acknowledgements to the followers who have turned online engagement into real foot traffic and a flood of orders she is now scrambling to keep up with.

It is not the first time Portia has spoken about the commercial potential of social media — she has touched on content creation and digital income streams in interviews before. But something about this moment feels different.
The restaurant boom has moved the conversation from theory to lived experience, showing in real time how a well-known face, a genuine product, and a loyal online following can quietly build something far bigger than anyone planned.
