Argentinian steakhouse boCHINche, formally located at Amoy Street settles into new home at 27 Club Street with a fresh look inspire by tribal design, and a refreshed menu helmed by Fabrice Mergalet.
Aside from their wide range of Wood & Coal Fired Beef options, boCHINche offers a good option of Nibble, Empanada and Starters.
Provolone cheese & smoked ham, confit onion, pimento & oregano ($5.00++) I have not tried their beef, chicken, or corn empanadas before but as a cheese & ham person like me, this NEW Provolone cheese & smoked ham empanadas is certainly one of the pastry that I can have it daily.
Quail, salt crust roasted beetroot, berries, buttermilk, hazelnut & garden leaves ($28.00++) I personally love this dish and highly recommended to order as a starter. The Quail is so tender!
Arg prawn, scallop tartare, “Bomba Arroz Verde” Manchego & Spiced Mix Leaves ($27.00++) Raw scallop bites are folded throughout the rice and glazed with a stock made using seafood trimmings, topped with grilled Argentinian prawns.
Burrata, fermented medley tomato, avocado mousse & orange cosmos ($29.00++) Italian Burrata paired with a medley of lacto fermented tomatoes that is plump and juice, dotted with avocado mousse and edible orange cosmos.
boCHINche offers a selection of grass-fed beef imported directly from Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, USA and Japan. A new dry-aged fridge allows beef to be dry-aged in-house typically for 35 to 38 days to push the flavours to its maximum. Their steaks are cooked using traditional grilling techniques over charcoal fire to achieve a lightly charred crust and smoky aroma.
What I had is The Meat Feast ($240.00++) which includes 1300g of Rib Eye, Fillet, Sirloin, Hanging Tender. This is great for sharing (for 2 to 4 pax) that allow us to try out not just 1 but 4 types of steaks at one time. Of course, for those who already had their favourite cuts in mine, it’s also available as an a-la-carte in the menu.
Don’t forget to try out their dessert before you leave as you will find some interesting creation such as:
White Chocolate Cheesecake, Seasonal Fruits, Crumble & Milk Ice Cream ($19.00++) I have never tried a White chocolate cheesecake but it’s a rather interesting contrast of equally prominent sweet and savoury notes.
Espresso Martini Crème Brulee & Brown Sugar Ice Cream ($19.00++) This is another one fav that I will come back for it. I would never think that Espresso, Martini, Brown Sugar Ice Cream can make up such a great combination on Crème Brulee.
