THE LARGEST SHUCKED OYSTER FESTIVAL IS BACK!! THIS 3 - 5th APRIL@ SOUTHERN ROCK SEAFOOD, BANGSAR!
Ask any oyster fans, and they will eagerly rave about how mesmerizing
the fresh seafood spread at Southern Rock Seafood is-
especially their smorgasbord of oyster range, which also happens to be their
signature that requires no further introduction! Most of the oysters are sourced
mainly from Ireland, England and Australia, besides motley catch from France,
Scotland, Holland as well as New Zealand, of which all depends on seasonality.
It’s not surprising the fact that Southern Rock Seafood is
the largest suppliers for shucked oysters demand in Klang Valley, supplying to most
of KL’s top restaurants and prominent hotels on top of their own operations at Bangsar HQ and a chain of SHUCKED Oyster and Seafood bars at B.I.G
@Publika and Village Grocer supermarkets. They have also recently opened in
the refurbished food court at KLCC
making a total of 5 bars at The Gardens
Mall, Village Grocer @ M-City and Ikano Power Centre.
And guess what? The much anticipated SHUCKED Oyster Festival is back!
This time is going to be a full weekend of fun, running from Friday 3rd to Sunday 5th
April 2020 at Southern Rock Seafood in
Bangsar. Guests will be delighted with a fine selection of the world’s best fish and
shellfish, live music, drinks and speed shucking and competitions
compared by comedic legend Jo Kam.
For the connoisseurs, dine with Jimmy Gallagher of Irish Premium
Oysters and Choong the Cloudy Bay Wine ambassador to Malaysia at our Cloudy
Bay Oyster Masterclass 7.30pm dinner on Friday 3rd April
2020.
As you enjoy the finest oysters the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans can produce, and the best of the worlds smoked salmon, wild-caught fish,
mussels and Cloudy Bay clams, you can also grab a ringside spot at the
semi-finals of our Malaysian Oyster Shucking Championships. Zeeshan, 2019 National SHUCKING champion,
will be defending his title against a strong field who able to shuck 12 oysters
in just 1 minute!
Our maestro Irish oyster grower, Jimmy Gallagher,
will be on hand to judge the shucking (oyster opening) competition and talk
about the pristine waters of Donegal.
On the entertainment side we are proud to welcome back Richard
Sykes and Kaki Keltik beautiful traditional Irish music, Bruce Head
and the
Fisherman’s Blues Band.
Bringing suitably saucy fun to the SHUCKING surprises; JO Kam joins for the first time on
Saturday night as well as excitedly welcome Funksters Indianapolis on
Sunday.
The healthy omega-3 oils, iron and minerals in our
world-class seafood ensure you will have a good dose of happiness- especially
when you discover our fresh Atlantic Ocean oysters start at only MYR 5 per piece.
We started off the fête with its iconic stars before
venturing further to its other signatures.
Oysters Irish Taster
Consists of Irish Premium, Tragheanna Bay and Gallagher
Special
You just can’t go wrong especially with the plump texture of
Gallagher Special that is grown in the wild and beautiful Donegal, that lures
you over with its mellow sweetness.
Dainty Fruits De Mer
Platter
A beautiful combo we have here:-
Scottish Gravlax, Smoked Ocean Trout Marinated Goat Cheese, Smoked
Mackerel Paté on Toast and Marinated Mussel
Amongst all that particularly captivated my palate was the
very well done gravlax or cured salmon, which was a very Swedish way of curing
raw salmon in salt, sugar and dill. The recipe was brilliantly executed,
rendering it an unique, springy texture that no one would actually guess it’s a
salmon had we not been told, awesome!
Coming up next was another astounding retro treat that no
one would reject- the classic Prawn Cocktail!
Each bites of the prawn was lightly coated with mayo and so satisfyingly springy and fresh
that definitely would get you hooked on for more! Not to mention the portion
was generously served too, thumbs up!
Really love this ‘savoury’ cocktail dearly!
Angel Hair Mussels
These very mouthwatering shellfishs are available in 3
flavours namely Legendary Laksa, Meuniere and Tomato Basil.
We have the saying of “Once bitten, twice shy”. But instead
in this case, it’s more like an “Once tried, twice (or more) craved for more! Personally
I enjoyed the Meuniere more.
Fish n’ Chips!
Fillet of fresh, flaky Barramundi deep fried till golden
brown and served with hand cut chips alongside tartar dips, simple stellar! 
And i love its home-prepared mashed peas too, yumzz!!
Salted Caramel Fudge Brownie
The Waihopai Valley
Marborough Sauvignon Blanc 2019
Often touted as ‘hole in the water’ due to it being one of
New Zealand’s sunniest and driest area. It’s these bright, cool climate
conditions, the sauvignon blanc grapes have the advantage of long slow,
ripening period.
Thanks Josh for hosting us such an excellent oceanic repast
that was fun-filled with camaraderie shared around the table.
