lovely restaurant in iconic neighbourhood

The Butcher's wife Address - 19 Yong Siak Street Avg. Price per Person - 40++ Rating - 4/5 Finally tried this. We reserved a table for 6pm when they just opened for dinner. And had the restaurant to ourselves for a good 20mins! The indoor seats were very comfortable. There are bar counter seats with open kitchen for anybody who wants to see the cooking process. Staff were friendly and gave good recommendations. But we came prepared and already knew what we wanted. Ordered 3 dishes for 2 to share and portion was just nice. Chargrilled cabbage was our favourite. Who can guess cabbage can be so fancy and taste great! Acaraje, which is a Brazilian street food, is something new to me. The black pea buns sandwiched prawns, dried shrimps, nuts and coconut milk. We also got the famous chargrilled octopus. The waiter said it is still in the menu after so long because it is that popular! Do make a reservation as it is hard to get seats for walk-in! #foodie #musteat
