The Butcher’s Wife Review

Verdict

The Butcher’s Wife serves unique gluten-free European food. Every dish we had here was like “Wow, what is that?” kind of feeling. They serve a variety of vegan, vegetarian and normal food inside which can cater to everyone. The highlight would be their chargrilled wagyu picanha, it was smokey, tender, and had a medium-strong umami flavor. Their dessert sticky white corn bruless was also surprisingly nice, not too sweet, and had a passionfruit sorbet to balance the dessert.

Things I like

  • Food creativity, each food was something most had never experienced before in Asia.
  • Chargrilled wagyu picanha, it was smokey, tender, and had a medium-strong umami flavor
  • Sticky white corn bruless was also surprisingly nice, not too sweet, and had a passionfruit sorbet to balance the dessert

Nitpicking

  • Some food visuals in their menu. As the food here is rather different, it would help to have some visual representation.

The Butcher’s Wife Food & Price

The Butcher's Wife Roots Salad

This was our first time at The Butchers’ Wife, we always walk past this restaurant and finally decided to try one day. For starters, we order their Roots Salad ($16.00), which is a combination of fennel, radish watermelon & coconut, and fermented green chili dressing. It was interesting, a little sweet from the sauce, and refreshing from the fruit.

Next, we order their cassava chips ($12.00) with kimchi tartar sauce. Their fries here are cut into a unique shape and aren’t like your regular fries which provide a nice crust on the outside and flufflyness inside. I like this simple dish and the kimchi tartar sauce was surprisingly a good combination.

The Butcher's Wife Croquetas

We order our 3rd appetizer Croquetas ($14.00) as it seems interesting to us. It is a crispy & creamy croquetas, fermented cashew-chili sauce, and sliced lime.

For the main course, we tried their famous chargrilled wagyu picanha ($49.00). We really enjoyed this dish, it had the smokey flavors from the chargrilled, the beef had a medium to strong umami flavor and it was quite tender.

The Butcher's Wife Sticky Corn

To end the night of what felt like a food adventure, we had their twist on Creme Brulee, the sticky white corn bruless ($14.00). It is Brazilian white corn, coconut milk, passion fruit sorbet and it is also vegan.

The Butcher’s Wife Service & Ambient

The restaurant is usually fully booked during dinner time so best make a reservation prior to your visit.

The staff was friendly and prompt with a dim lighting atmosphere. Good spot to bring for dating.
