we recently tried this seafoodrestauranton a friday night at fujairah rotana during our 2 nights stay. lucky us, as they’re having a market concept where you can pick the seafood, weigh it, cook it as you like. it’s fun! our wait staff aaron was well versed as he explained all the type of seafood. from the “market”, we selected bizri as our starters which according to him are exported from chile or germany, hammour and shrimp. since my husband was allergic to some seafood, we’d also chosen from their à la carte menu, he ordered a ribeye steak and i asked for a tom yum soup and dessert. mocktails were called innocent mai tai (a mixture of pineapple, carribean syrup, lemon and orange) and berry brainstorm (a blend of strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, apple lemon and vanilla ice cream).
the starters arrived, the soup and fried bizri. the soup has the right amount of spice and the bizri tastes really good that my husband finishes most! i tried to stop him as he was allergic to it but he insisted! i cannot blame him as it was crispy and delicious. so the same night, he feels a bit itchy :p
all the main courses are accompanied by steamed vegetable, potato cooked to your liking (we chose wedges) and rocca salad. we asked them not to put any mashed potato with the steak as we felt like overeating already with the mere sight of each dish :) each is beautifully plated by their great chef. the husband loves his steak and i like the hammour partnered with lemon and garlic butter sauce. yum! ended our meal with the mouth-watering trio desert – small portion of tiramisu, chocolate lava cake and strawberry cheesecake.
