Hello Unregistered,

6 Mohamed Sultan Road, Tel: 6836-3436 Open: Noon to 2.30pm, 6.30 to 10pm daily except Mondays

Everytime I go to Azhang, that quirky, hard-to-define restaurant in Mohamed Sultan Road, I end up sharing the seafood platter ($50.90) with two or three other friends.

But secretly, I want the whole thing to myself.

I sometimes stay up nights thinking about that large, juicy squid that is part of the platter.

Chef-owner Patrick Zhang bastes the monster in red wine and manages to keep it juicy and tender. You can taste the sweet freshness of the squid, and all that’s needed is a drop of homemade sambal belacan to make a delicious mouthful. People used to over-cooked squid will take some time to adjust to it. The first time I had it, I thought it was under done.

The two big grilled prawns are always very fresh and meaty, and tastes of good olive oil.

Then there’s the fillet of salmon belly, grilled till the skin is delightfully crisp. The meat is flaky and rich – it is salmon belly after all. Just heavenly.

Azhang’s flavourful pilaf rice makes a good accompaniment, especially after some salmon oil has soaked into it, and there’s a rough chopped tomato and onion salsa to provide some relief from the richness.
