Diving Deep: The Coral Trout Symphony at Blowfish Ocean Grill + Bar

At Blowfish Ocean Grill + Bar, the Gold Coast’s best seafood restaurant located in the heart of Broadbeach, we believe seafood is more than just a meal, it’s an experience. We’re passionate about sourcing the finest, freshest catches from Australia’s pristine waters, and one particular star on our menu is a testament to this – our North Queensland Coral Trout, prepared with meticulous care and a touch of culinary artistry.

A Treasure from the Reef: North Queensland Coral Trout

This isn’t your average fish dish. We’re talking about Coral Trout, a prized species renowned for its delicate, sweet flavour and firm, flaky texture. Sourced directly from the clear, sun-drenched reefs of North Queensland, these fish are caught using sustainable practices that respect the delicate marine ecosystem. The vibrant colours and exceptional quality of these fish are a direct result of their pristine habitat.

A Symphony of Flavours: Miso Bearnaise and Trout Roe

Our chefs then take this exceptional ingredient and transform it into a dish that’s both elegant and deeply satisfying. The Coral Trout fillet is gently grilled to perfection, allowing its natural sweetness to shine. But we don’t stop there. We believe in creating flavour combinations that are both innovative and harmonious.

Enter our Miso Bearnaise. This unique twist on the classic French sauce adds a layer of umami richness that perfectly complements the sweetness of the Coral Trout. The subtle fermented notes of miso, combined with the creamy, tangy goodness of Bearnaise, create a sauce that’s both comforting and exciting.

To further enhance the dish, we add a generous scattering of Trout Roe. These tiny bursts of flavour provide a delightful salty pop, adding textural complexity and a touch of oceanic brininess. The roe’s vibrant colour also adds a visually stunning element to the plat

Crisp and Refreshing: Buttercrunch and Shallot

For a touch of freshness and crunch, we incorporate Buttercrunch lettuce and delicate Shallots. The crisp, slightly sweet Buttercrunch provides a refreshing counterpoint to the rich sauce and fish, while the shallots add a subtle, savoury bite. The contrast between the tender fish and the crisp lettuce makes each bite a delightful experience.

Inclusive Dining: Gluten-Free Excellence

And for those with dietary considerations, this entire dish is thoughtfully prepared to be GF (gluten-free). We believe that everyone should be able to enjoy the exquisite flavours of our Coral Trout, regardless of dietary restrictions.
