Husk

NASHVILLE

At Husk, in Nashville, executive chef Ben Norton is redefining what it means to cook and eat in the South.

“The award-winning culinary collective gets better and better, with ever-improving menus and inspirational guest chefs”
GQ
“If any London restaurant might be able to answer the restless and demanding contemporary appetite, it’s Carousel”
Vanity Fair
“Carousel is a foodies’ heaven”
Elle UK
“Carousel has launched the careers of dozens of superstar chefs and established itself as the place to find the next big thing in dining.”
Culture Trip
“…pioneering a new form of hip gastro pop-up”
How To Spend It
“A three-story creative hub that hosts a turntable of food pop-ups with a rotating cast of stellar international chefs”
Goop
“Chefs come aboard for two-week residencies and then spin out into a world of new-found fame. The programme has launched the careers of many young chefs…”
Condé Nast Traveller
“Most restaurants will be happy to host a residency once a month or so, but Carousel has made a full-time virtue of it”
The Times
“If it’s not one cheffy legend working this space, it’s another. For each, the week at Carousel is a chance to have a dalliance with a new capital’s culinary culture”

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩... 𝐈𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 Thursday 16th February, 6pm & 7:45pm By now you may have heard the news that our incredible GM and resident wine nut @ella_mccabe._ is leaving us at the end of the month (😢). Come and join us in No. 23 for her final wine tasting before she jets off on her travels. We’ll be island-hopping through five wines, travelling down Sicily’s SP68 highway, via central Mallorca and into the ‘Occhio di Terra’ (that’s ‘eye of the earth’ for the non-Italians amongst you) to explore some crisp, mineral and all-round tasty grapes. And because it wouldn’t be a Carousel wine tasting without ample snacks, we’ll be pairing Ella’s favourite island wines with a selection of Med-inspired nibbles. So, grab some pals, escape the cold and come catch some island sun with us… And shout out to the extremely talented @oliveranglin_ for another epic poster

 Looking back at a fun week with @justin.s.ahn of @incheonva With help from familiar face @chefalexmccoy , Justin served up six vibrant courses of creative Korean-rooted food, including pork cheek ssam with homemade radish kimchi, walnut ssamjang, roasted garlic and pickled cabbage; and charred octopus with gochujang romesco, roasted Jerusalem artichokes & spring onion 🔥

 If Carousel did steak & chips...

We're open from midday. Come by and see us or book in via the link in our bio.

 The secret’s out. We’re buzzing to announce that @poons_wontoneria is launching a (lunchtime) pop-up in No. 23. Yep, great news for wonton lovers - from 7th February, you can get your hands on the best in town every Tuesday to Saturday between 12pm and 3pm. Soft, silky and filled with fresh marinated pork, prawns, chicken or veg, @poonslondon's legendary Chinese wontons come swimming in a seriously addictive chilli vinegar dressing and topped with spring onions. We can’t get enough of them. And nor can @amy__poon’s army of loyal fans. Come and join the club, every Tuesday – Saturday lunchtime. Dine in or take-away, walk-ins only.

 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤... We’re stoked to be welcoming @nudo_ibiza into the guest chef kitchen next week.  Chef @edo_fiaschi joins us for two weeks with a killer menu of seasonal seafood dishes that will have you transported right to the beach. Highlights include langoustines with fermented plantain & morita chilli; oysters with tamari & chilli; beetroot and paprika-glazed BBQ squid; and fresh taglioni with clams, kimchi & herbs.  Head to the link in our bio to read the full menu in all its glory and grab your tickets while you can. 📸 : @nudo_ibiza, @cookinthekitch, @serendella

 Looking back on last week with the brilliant @j_abraham_artigas, head chef and owner of @littlejarana in Deià, Mallorca. Highlights from his seven course taste of the Med included handmade gnocchi with zesty bergamot, bottarga, fennel & croutons; razor clams with chipotle & lardo; roasted beetroot, pumpkin purée & pistachio dressing; and poached pears with a spiced crumble and cream. If you ever find yourself in Deià during the summer, you know where to go…

 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩... 𝐇𝐮𝐬𝐤 NASHVILLE 14th - 18th February  At @husknashville, executive chef Ben Norton is redefining what it means to cook and eat in the South. Reinterpreting the bounty of Tennessee and the surrounding area, @benjaminsnorton’s ingredient-driven cuisine begins in the rediscovery of heirloom products and ends on the plate with playful dishes such as Bear Creek Beef Tartare with Crawfish XO & Pepper Relish; Turbot with Preserved Tomato Gravy & Green Tomato Chow-Chow; and New Orleans BBQ Shrimp & Grits. Key to Husk’s proudly southern identity is Norton’s close relationships with local farmers who supplement what he can’t grow himself onsite in the restaurant’s bountiful kitchen garden with a regular supply of the season’s freshest ingredients. A week at Carousel will mean relaxing Norton’s one rule (“if it doesn’t come from the South, it’s not coming through the door”), but we cannot wait to see his inimitable style of contemporary southern fine dining interpreted through the lens of the best British produce we can get our hands on.

 Congratulations for making it through the first two weeks of January. Time for a drink. And for the Dry Jan-ers out there, we got you. If non-alcoholic beer or a booze-free twist on G&T aren't your thing, our Black in Thyme cocktail can be made without alcohol too. We combine our homemade blackberry and thyme cordial with tonic water, a squeeze of lemon and a sprig of fresh thyme. Delicious. Come and see us from midday. Link in our bio to book.

 Big news. After three and a half action-packed years, our amazing GM @ella_mccabe._ is getting ready for her next adventure. If you're part of the Ella fan club (and there are a lot of us), fear not, you still have a few more weeks to say your goodbyes. In the meantime, we figured the best place to start the search for Ella's replacement was here. Do feel free to share this with anyone you think might be a great fit. No two days at Carousel are ever the same, and as our new GM you'll be working across our guest chef residencies, the wine bar and our revolving pop-up space, No. 23. In short, it's never boring here. Add to that an amazing team who share a very real passion for creating amazing experiences, not just for our guests, but all the talented people we collaborate with, and you have an exciting, challenging and massively varied role in a close-knit, supportive environment that's all about trying out new things. Are you an experienced restaurant manager looking to take the next step, or a seasoned GM craving a bit more independence? We want to hear from you. Send your CV and cover letter to info@carousel-london.com

 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩... 𝐍𝐮𝐝𝐨 ES FIGUERAL, IBIZA 31st January – 11th February What happens when three passionate and extremely well-travelled ex-Noma chefs join forces to take over a beachside restaurant in Ibiza? Magic. Set right on the beach of Es Figueral on the North of the island, @nudo_ibiza may have the appearance of a small and unassuming beach café, but it’s fast become one of the hottest food destinations in the Balearics. And with good reason. Making the most of its (extremely) close proximity to the sea, Nudo’s seasonally-changing menu is made up of creative Mediterranean seafood dishes, peppered with global influences. Think 'BBQ Squid Glazed With Beetroot & Paprika'; 'Langoustine, Fermented Plantain, Morita Chilli Oil'; and 'Fresh Taglioni, Clams, Kimchi, Soft Herbs', all accompanied by a selection of locally-made natural wines chosen by ex-Noma sommelier Francesca Niro. Chef @edo_fiaschi joins us for two weeks with a killer menu that will have you transported straight to the beach. Yes please. Swipe to see the full menu, as well as the vegetarian alternative, and head to the link in our bio to book yourself in.  📸 : @whereinibiza_
