Hudson – A Little bit of Manhattan in the City

The moment of impact…your eyes lock, knees wobble and you can’t help but utter the words ‘wow’ even though your vocab is far more sophisticated. It’s definitely a “you had me at hello” moment.

None of us like to be that superficial about attraction but when you meet Hudson, it’s so darn beautiful, with its star-like single-bulb pendant lights, over sized chandeliers, pinched chocolate sofas for those snuggle n’ cocktail moments, balcony and fine dining sections – it’s hard not to be smitten.

Fine dining here is a Manhattan-style molecular delight thanks to Ricky Keeley (ex IVY, Pilu, Buon Ricordo). If you love textural dining, combining sous vide with pan fried elements, foams, sands and gels this is your kind of place. Go-to dishes include calamari with lime aioli, quinoa, squid foam, and charred scampi with jamon crumble.

Don’t miss the sugar cured duck, chorizo and smoked chickpeas or kelp fed beef fillet with pedro ximénez braised beef short rib which is so succulent it melts on touch. For dessert, be prepared for a few surprises from pumpkin to chocolate … just not as you know it.

Start spreading the news. You’ll want to be a part of it.
