BlackSalt

< Back to Portfolio

This place was more than a dream, it was a heartfelt desire that I nurtured with every bit of strength. Every splash of color on the walls, every upcycled piece of furniture and every nuance in the kitchen design was a reflection of the passion and devotion I invested in it. Nestled in the cozy corner of Sai Ying Pun, it was our sanctuary from the city’s noise and chaos.

​

My amazing wife, my pillar of strength, joined me in this adventure. We created a chic and cozy business that offered not only warmth but also the homely feeling of belonging. Our food was a culinary adventure inspired by “black salt” or “kala namak”, a fiery Himalayan rock salt with a pungent sulphurous aroma and an incredible umami eggy flavor. It was our wish that each mouthful would bring a sense of wonder and happiness to our customers, much like the salt itself.

​

Our menu was a loving tribute to my roots, cherished family recipes, the elegance of European cuisine, and the lively flavors of the subcontinent. It was our mission to add a modern twist to traditional dishes while preserving their authentic essence.
