Amano - December 2017
Christmas is iconic at Husk for being one of the most memorable Husk lunches of the year. Reasons being a) the locations are always epic, b) Husks’ “favourite things” present tradition and c) cocktails. Hip Group’s Amano been on everyone’s foodie radar for ages and we were absolutely spoiled. These guys take the freshest ingredients and are able to draw out the purest of flavours from each one — sounds basic but really not. Also loving the range of yummy greens and seafood — our favourite pescaterian had more than two food choices for once! The industrial fit-out with sepia tones and dried flowers hanging from the roof were a visual feast; while the wealth of staff on the floor ensured each table were well looked after. We think every restaurant should strive to be like Amano, but maybe we’re biased.

Tomato, torn basil & pine nuts
Raw courgette, mint, caper & sesame
New season potatoes & mint butter
