Insider Dining Tips
•Fat Butcher Steakhouse Strategy
•Book in advance - Fat Butcher is a Stellenbosch favorite and tables fill quickly, especially on weekends and during wine festival season.
•Start with their charcuterie board to prime your palate while deciding on your main cut - it features local cured meats and pairs perfectly with Stellenbosch wines.
•Order steaks one temperature below your usual preference - Fat Butcher's grilling technique often results in slightly higher cooking than standard steakhouses.
•Consider sharing sides family-style - their potato gratin and creamed spinach portions are generous enough for 2-3 diners.
•Save room for the whisky-paired dessert options - the Fat Butcher excels at sweet finishes that complement their extensive brown spirits collection.
Insider Tip
•Tuesday Dry-Aged Special: 30% off select dry-aged cuts between 6-7pm, perfect for early diners who appreciate premium beef.
