A Symphony of Flavors

Chef-Patron Houman Meshkati believes good cooking begins with respect, for ingredients, for technique, and for the guest. His approach is rooted in simplicity and restraint, allowing high-quality produce to speak clearly without unnecessary complexity. Dishes are carefully balanced, seasonal, and designed to be comforting yet precise.

Houman values consistency above all else. The aim is not to surprise, but to deliver confidence and clarity on every plate. Hospitality is seen as an extension of the kitchen: calm, attentive, and sincere.

The menu at Doost & Amici evolves with the seasons and reflects a blend of Persian generosity and Italian structure. Techniques are classical, flavours are clean, and portions are designed to satisfy rather than impress. The kitchen favours depth over decoration, focusing on well-judged seasoning, careful cooking, and harmony between elements.

There is a strong emphasis on balance, between richness and freshness, familiarity and refinement, ensuring dishes remain approachable while maintaining discipline and care.

Ingredients are chosen for quality, seasonality, and reliability. The kitchen works closely with trusted suppliers, favouring produce that is consistent and responsibly sourced. Rather than chasing novelty, the focus is on understanding ingredients deeply and treating them with respect through correct preparation and timing
