Under the same group of Blue Butcher and Brickhouse, Maximal Concepts replaces Spanish Sal Curioso with down to earth Fish & Meat in Wyndham Street. Yet the venue is still ideal for hang out, dinner and drinks. On top of serving seafood and meat as it’s named, they have homemade pasta too.They have a simple lunch menu and for my first visit, I focused on their seafood items and yet to explore their meat and pasta.
a) Crab and Jalapeño Crostinis ($80) – 8/10
Chunks of crab meat sitting on a crostini. To me the ciabatta was way too dry and crispy. The crab meat was in right seasoning, generous portion and good to go with the frisée salad.b) Pan-fried Sea Bream ($180) – 8/10
Good presentation. The sea bream was pan-fried to a crispy skin but the flesh was dehydrated as well. Fennel was prepared with vinegar and the pea purée was pleasant.c) Sweet Corn Polenta ($60) – 8/10
Cream and milk were added to this polenta to give an intense milky flavour. The natural sweetness of the corn made me feel like having a Chinese sweet soup. The freshly grated Parmigiano was good to neutralize a bit.d) Beer – 8/10
One of my favourite beer on tap besides 1664 and Hoegarden. G. Menabrea e Figli gives a hint of honey.02.2014
