Philadelphia: Butcher and Singer

📍 1500 Walnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19102 The first floor looks like a beautiful opera box similar to Carbon, and we enjoyed some delightful winter dishes that really lifted our spirits. From the moment we sat down, things were off to a great start. The little bowl of butter that arrived first was already a pleasant surprise—lightly mango-flavored and very delicate, along with warm “scone” bread. Then the waiter brought over a basket of baguettes; such attention to detail! 🌟 Steak Tartare This is the textbook version of steak tartare. It tasted like a blue cheese and yolk sauce, with finely diced peppers adding just the right amount of “spice”—enough to give it a rich flavor without being overpowering. It was adorable. The accompanying slices of bread, however, seemed a bit redundant. I’d suggest just savoring the tartare on its own. 🌟 Butcher Salad This salad was really something special. How so? “You might say it’s a miracle. I’m someone who dislikes salads so much that it’s well-known throughout Shanghai, but after eating this one here, I’ve been craving salads almost every day. They have to include dried fruits and candied fruit dices, raisins, chunks and shreds of cheese, tomatoes, crisp and sweet green vegetables, and salami—oh, and green beans too!” 🌟 20 oz. Bone-In Strip This is the “secret” cut of meat that’s so tender it juices as you cut into it. It has a strong “beefy” flavor, and I’d say it’s the best thing at what’s considered the “best steakhouse in Philadelphia.” The meat is incredibly tender and subtly aromatic. It’s so delicate that you almost can’t believe it’s from an animal. You might even detect some undefined fruity or sweet notes. After finishing it, there’s no feeling of heaviness or guilt; you feel light and satisfied. #MyDailyLife #LifeInNorthAmerica #FoodieCheckIn #GlobalEatingSquad
