Best Pan-Seared Fish in Penang

Written by Updated ago

Fish is as divine as it creates conundrum on how to bring out the best taste while retaining its natural flavours. Simple, straightforward and subliminal, a pan-seared fillet is undeniably second to none. Juicy and decadent flesh locked beneath a flaky skin, further heightened with compelling consorts or savoury sauces. Tongue tingling with excitement yet vacillating where to go? Drop the worries and delve in any eateries in our crib sheet below.

    Previously located at Straits Quay, Five27 has now cavorted to the bustling Chulia Court, yet their delectable menu stays as it is. Eye-catching interiors greet your attention at first, terracotta tiles, nostalgic arts and lights and several dining segments, visually appealing and vividly bedecked. Fish lovers, opt for their Pan Seared Salmon. The delightfully cooked fish with crispy skin and tender flesh sits on orbits of honey and dill mustard sauce where planets of greens add a layer of crunch. Baby potatoes with balsamic caramelised onions accompany the platter. If Tuna is your pick, Japanese Tataki Tuna Salad would be great, pan seared fresh tuna covered with sesame seeds and served with mixed greens, boiled egg and ponzu sauce dressing.

    Among the most vaunted restaurants in Penang, Mizi Bistro serves hearty portions of Western fare that are easy on the wallet and joy to the palate. If fish is what your belly screams for, there are plenty of sauces and toppings to pamper your fillet, where Pan-seared Fish Fillet Polonaise tops the chart. The fresh snapper has a crackling skin and plump flesh, lounging in a pool of parsley butter sauce and liberally topped with chopped eggs and sides of blanched greens. The flavour combinations might sound a little quirky yet it’s sinfully satisfying. Other flavour profiles include teriyaki sauce as well as spicy and sweet “ulam” sauce.
