ButterNut – Fusion Western Stall Serves Delicious Thin-Crust Pizzas, With Islandwide Delivery Too

ButterNut is a Western fusion food stall at Taman Jurong Food Centre famous for their delicious thin-crust pizzas. I was surprised to learn about them because it’s pretty rare to find hawker stalls selling pizzas in Singapore. This article was last updated on 13 June 2020.

ButterNut


The owners, couple Darren and Vivian, founded the stall around three years ago. Prior to opening ButterNut, Darren had worked for two years in the F&B industry.

Other than running the stall, the couple also caters for corporates, events, and parties. They even run pizza workshops too!

The stall has been Muis Halal Certified since 2017.

During my visit, the couple was very nice and polite. My pizzas took less than 15 minutes to be ready, which was really fast considering that they had to dress the pizzas and bake them too.

If you’re wondering what “butternut” means, it’s actually a type of fruit similar to pumpkin. This fruit is used as a topping for the stall’s signature “ButterNut Chicken Pizza”.


ButterNut is located at a quiet corner on the second floor of Taman Jurong Food Centre. If you have trouble locating it, you can refer to the various signboards around.

The extensive menu offers a tantalising selection of Pizzas, Gourmet Burgers, Chicken Chop dishes, Fresh Baked Meals, Pasta, and Finger Food.

I was impressed by the variety of food they could create in such a small kitchen!

ButterNut is best known for their 8-inch thin crust pizzas. The signature flavour is the ButterNut Chicken Pizza ($6.90), while other popular options include the Mushroom Truffle Pizza ($7.90) and Smoked Ducked Pizza ($7.90).

Their gourmet burgers come with potato wedges and coleslaw, and cost just $7.90.

If you’re craving for pasta, go for the signature Chicken Chop Alfredo Spaghetti ($6.90).

For sides, you can check out the popular Sweet Potato Fries ($3.90), 6 Pc Chicken Nuggets ($3.90), or Truffle Fries with Parmesan Cheese & Oregano Herbs ($5.90).

To enjoy their members price, you need to follow and like them on Instagram and Facebook.

Islandwide Delivery


During this Circuit Breaker period, ButterNut is offering island-wide delivery. You would need to order one day in advance (before 9pm) for the next working day.

You can order delivery through their preorder form or Facebook page. It is advisable to order takeaway in advance too, because they can get really busy during peak hours.

ButterNut Chicken Pizza (MUST TRY)


The signature ButterNut Chicken Pizza ($6.90) consists of oven baked Italia-Indica chicken slices, roasted butternut chunks, and rosemary herbs.

After the pizza is taken out of the oven, it is given a quick torching which softens the butternut and brings out its sweetness.

The delicate sweetness of the butternut went perfectly with the juicy chicken chunks, and I enjoyed the aromatic aftertaste of the rosemary herbs.

The highlight was the crust, which was amazingly thin. It was super tasty and crunchy too!

This scrumptious pizza definitely exceeded my expectations.

Mushroom Truffle Pizza


The Mushroom Truffle Pizza ($7.90) is another popular flavour. It consists of white button mushrooms, shimeji mushrooms, parmesan cheese, parsley, and white truffle oil.

The mushrooms were tasty, and I enjoyed the truffle aroma. This was a simple but delicious pizza.

Cajun Chicken Pizza


I also tried the new Cajun Chicken Pizza  ($7.90), which consists of Southern-inspired chicken thighs, mozzarella cheddar mixed cheese, and parsley.

The chicken was savoury with a tinge of feistiness, and the cheese had a pleasant umami flavour. However, I felt that this pizza was not as flavourful as the ButterNut Chicken or Mushroom Truffle.

Conclusion


ButterNut is definitely not your usual Western food stall. Their thin-crust pizza is a unique and delicious dish that I’ve not seen before at any other hawker centre. They also serve a variety of other interesting Western fusion dishes. If you are in the area, make sure you check out this stall at Taman Jurong Food Centre. You will not regret it!
