Butterfly is one of the restaurants that I love and hate because it offers both Japanese and Thai cuisine on their menu. My first thought is, how good can it be when they are trying to cover two major culinary bases? My second thought is, I don’t have to decide on only one Asian-food craving when I go there. They actually have some pretty decent sushi if I remember correctly, tasty rice dishes, teriyaki and a great pad see ew. Apparently, they also have some sort of deep fried golden chicken wing thing that I have yet to try. I’ve gotten take-out and dined in at the location at 1156 W Grand Avenue, and I was happy to spot a second West Town location opening at 1421 W. Chicago Avenue at the end of this month. I like that it’s going to be located in one of the older buildings on the street with a fire escape in front, and not lodged into some empty storefront of a new construction condo. I also liked looking up and seeing this guy:
