Butcher's Block

Perfecto~ (Translated by Google) Perfect~

Would recommend their ribeye and risotto + the crispy potatoes. Ordering these 3 is quite filling and sharable between two pax.

When you walk into Butcher’s Block, please slow down to enjoy the open kitchen. Many rare ingredients and meats!

We had a good dinner here as part of our stay at the hotel and to celebrate the wife's birthday. We went with the IMUA tasting dinner menu, and liked most of the dishes. Chef Jordan, with his Hawaiian background, has an interesting take on flavours and taste and these are showcased in his dishes. We liked the bluefin tartlet and the laksa pain souffle in the starters, as well as the little bites like Lomi Lomi with the artichoke. The Kalua pork dumpling and Huli-Huli dried aged duck were tasty and well presented. I especially loved the grilled Murray cod, even though I am not a fish person - the dish was excellently executed and the rice congee was superb. The wagyu with the bone marrow custard, English pea puree and chimicurri was also very good. We did wish it was more substantial, especially as the restaurant prides itself on wood-fired meals. The thin slices provided lacked the bite. The missus felt the texture had changed too much from the Koji, and was more like char siu pork rather than beef. Throughout the meal, the staff like Alberto and even Chef Jordan himself came over to describe the dishes and how best to enjoy them. The desserts were okay but we were most impressed with the delicate twill, as well as the garlic pastry crust for the bluefin tartlett. Overall, it was an enjoyable dinner, including watching the team working in the show kitchen.
