The Butchers Wife Featured in Lifestyle Asia

Excerpt from Lifestyle Asia Food & Drink by Jocelyn Tan 11 Aug 2020

One would imagine a world without gluten to be dark and depressing, but if the world knew about the revamped menu at The Butcher’s Wife under Paris-trained and Brazilian-born Chef Mariana, they’d think again. 

Starters like Our Own’s Goat Cheese is a classic French-styled cheese and honey pairing, but is made in-house with locally sourced goat’s milk from Hay’s Farm, and transformed into a thick, creamy cheese using Kefir grains.

The Mini Corn on Fire is a take on the Brazilian street-styled corn-on-the-cob, complemented with an addictive black garlic aioli that left us coming back for more.

Four different Tostadas are available for this weekend lunch menu, but we’d recommend the vegetarian Avocado and Corn Tostada, topped with fuchsia pink flower petals for a bit of colour. As for the five pizza options, the BB Pizza is a stunning wood-fired organic lamb pizza that’s delightfully aromatic. Served with tomato, onion, molasses, parsley and mint, the pizza isn’t gamey or too heavy for lighter palates: the other ingredients balance the lamb out perfectly, and was a definite crowd favourite amongst diners.
