How does butcher work?
We select the best premium beef that we mature ourselves and then grill on charcoal. This ensures the unique flavors that we strive for. With our dishes you can choose from different simple and seasonal side dishes. These are handmade from daily fresh products.

By grilling on charcoal we always have an improved taste. As the meat heats up, droplets are released that hit the super-hot charcoal and burn. These droplets are full of fats, oils, sugars and proteins that evaporate and rise again in the meat they came from. This is how you get that delicious taste from grilling on charcoal.

Our meat
Butcher's house aged meats
Wagyu
Rolls Royce under the meat Wagyu is a breed of cattle, known for its very exclusive and tasty beef. Wagyu stands for “Japanese cow”.
Rubia Gallega
The beautiful Iberian beef Rubia Gallega is becoming increasingly well-known in the Netherlands and Belgium. The meat has a very nice and refined taste. A clear feature of this beef is the subtle fat veining, also called marbling. Marbling is fat that sits between the muscle tissue, intramuscular fat. The meat also has a spicy and slightly salty taste and has been prominent on the menu of many Spanish star chefs for years. This taste experience is created by the natural and free way of life of these cattle. In Galicia it is standard that cattle are only slaughtered after two to seven years. This is much later than other common cattle. So the animals have had plenty of time to enjoy all the good nature has to offer.
Aberdeen Angus
Normandes
The Normande is a breed that comes from Normandy. The cows are pied with many dark red to sometimes almost black spots on white. Dark rings can often be seen around the eyes and the rest of the head and legs are often spotted (mud feet).
Charolais
Charolais meat can compete with the best meat in the world. Not only in terms of taste, but also in terms of marbling and tenderness. The meat is tender and mild. And very tasteful because of the natural food & herbs.
Aubrac
An authentic French variety from the Massif Central (Aveyron). The brown-red cows graze on high meadows full of grasses and wild herbs. The French “a-la-douce” approach produces a superior variety. The flesh is dark red/purple and always very nicely marbled. Only with patience (maturation) and knowledge we obtain the spicy, slightly dairy-like taste. One of, if not the best of the French varieties. Exclusive and not easy to obtain.
Hereford
The Herefords are originally from the south western part of England. Around the town of Hereford on the Welsh Border, this characteristic hard and durable beef cattle developed in the second half of the 18th century. The Hereford cows have an exceptionally gentle character and are therefore easy to keep. Beef beef became so popular that it is still one of the most common beef cattle breed in the world. The meat is not really lean, but almost always.
Jersey
The meat of the Jersey cow is truly a unique product in terms of taste and structure. Different from the others. The Jersey cows are a lot smaller than other cows, they are a pure dairy breed from the island of Jersey. The milk has a distinct taste and contains significantly more fat than that of other cows. Therefore very suitable for producing special creamy cheeses.
Salers
1st De Salers cows, a sturdy breed that can take a beating. Originally they are mountain cows. Because they are in motion a lot, they have well-developed muscles. The meat of the Salers cow is known in France as the best beef in the world. The sirloin steaks are therefore one of the tastiest of its kind.
