Butterfly Garden

Butterfly Garden deserves four stars for one dish — their Deep Fried Battered Eggplant with Spicy Blackbean Sauce. You get a deep bowl for $ 12.80 and it’s good. A little salty and garlicky but good and the best priced eggplant in Walsh Bay. Seriously, before you go for dumplings at Lotus (or if you are turned away from the Lotus like some ordinary peasant) purchase a bowl of their Deep Fried Battered Eggplant to get by. It’s a guilty pleasure and worthy food addiction.
There are items that do need some serious refining. Their soups would benefit from more vegetables, less cornflour, homemade stock, ginger, garlic, herbs and spice. The prawn dumplings from a simple hot and sour sauce with some chopped spring onions and ginger to garnish.
However, they actually asked for feedback regarding dishes and I appreciated that. They even remade a dish for us.
I wish they gave the option of deep frying the dumplings and some ice in the water.
However, the service here is 100%. Warm & welcoming with a 100% heart and soul. Mistakes are made but they are fixed.
Try the eggplant, you won’t be disappointed.

This place was a little below average. The food seemed over loaded with black pepper and the meat and chicken was very chewy. I gave it three stars because the service was good and it seems to be family owned. The hostess was also the waitress and she was working very hard.
