Fine Cut Butchers - Review - Bermondsey - London - The Infatuation

"Brazilian cuisine was one reductively painted as merely barbecued meat, but most Brazilians are indeed meat lovers and Fine Cut Butchers in Bermondsey is the place to go. As the name suggests, the restaurant is tucked behind one of London’s best Brazilian butchers, through an almost-secret door. With a narrow strip of patioed floor and a small charcoal grill that the waiters will occasionally tend to, it feels like a backyard in São Paulo. The all-you-can-eat skewers—chicken hearts, chicken wings, and pork stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon—are all brilliant. But the standout is a “starter” of picanha: perfectly cooked, with a mountain of creamy-on-the-inside, crisp-on-the-outside cassava chips and fried onions. It’s a huge, delicious pile of drinking food. Don’t miss the passion fruit mousse with brigadeiro, a Brazilian sweet made with chocolate and condensed milk. Ultra tart combined with ultra sweet, it’s heaven. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Pause Unmute" - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
