At a time when restaurants are temporarily forced to close, Haus launched The Restaurant Project to support American restaurants by creating collaborative apéritifs. With the project, 100% of the profits go to the restaurants, which is essential for supporting employees and covering some of the costs of operating during an uncertain time.
Naturally, each of the co-created apéritifs represents the unique culinary approach of each restaurant. For instance, the Haus x Poole's Diner apéritif combines the tart and sweet flavors of grapefruit, thyme, Tellicherry pepper and honey, while the Haus x RICH TABLE offers a completely different set of flavors with botanical shiso, local citrus fruits and aromatic chrysanthemum.
