Rating - **** (very good)


After one week in Thailand always having delicious food and free of spices me and José were not feeling like having another meal at Macdonald's or Pizza Hut, we wanted something more tasty and refined.

The last time we had been to Kolkata we had been to a Lounge Bar with Ricardo and Kwame in a terrace area that was extremely pleasant and with an outstanding service. In order to get into the Lounge we had to passed by the Hushh Restaurant and the scent of Italian food and a minimalist but elegant ambience were enough to make us visit the place again and this time to have a splendid dinner.

In the menu you may find a large collection of starters and soups, then the traditional Italian Pizzas and Pasta.

I had a pasta covered with shrimps and squid seasoned with a slightly spicy sauce. I cannot say that it was outstanding but since we were in Kolkata and not Rome it was quite acceptable.

José had a Calzone for what he told me we enjoyed the meal but the presentation was not of a traditional calzone since it was not inflated as usually is but after all the taste is the most important thing.

I finished this nice meal with a fantastic brownie and vanilla ice cream, please don't leave the restaurant without having this dessert it is very special.
