Relish the relaxed, casual vibe at Butcher Boy; this meat-lover’s haven is one to visit for its tasty, Asian-inspired cocktails, good music, and its great selection of meaty treats (of course). Named after Chef-Owner Andrew Walsh’s favourite movie The Butcher Boy, the restaurant places its specialty front and centre – and boy is the meat good.

Try not to swoon as you tuck into a helping of Black Angus Tender Valley Rib Eye – tender, luscious, and perfect with a generous slather of the house rendition of XO sauce, it’s an all-round mouthwatering dish that you’ve got to try. You can’t go wrong with the salt-baked and grilled Crispy Skin Pork Belly either – a comforting favourite complete with a good, solid crackling. A sauce would be a lovely touch as well; the restaurant’s list of Asian-influenced sauces are big on taste and serve to perfectly complement the meats. If you’re looking for something that’s not all just meat, however, then don’t forget to peruse the list of baos and sides (think Tomato, Tofu, Onion Dashi). And of course, complete your meal with a drink on the side – the Plum Sloe Gin Fizz is deliciously tangy and a definite must-try, and the Smoking Carriage is an impressive number you do not want to miss! So for a tipple, some great grills, and a relaxing dining experience, you can’t do much better than Butcher Boy, really. (Sep 2017)
