I love that spoon!

Legitimately the most delicious looking meal I've seen here 🤤

Thank you 😋

Looks amazing. Why is there rice purple?

Thanks! The rice is cooked with the leaves of the Magenta plant to get the purple color. Also we can get green rice by cooking with pandan leaves, or even orange rice with gac fruit.

That was my first thought, too.

This is awesome! Where is this located if you don't mind?

In Vietnam, phu quoc island! Thank you.

Food is too close to the sand, looks delicious and makes me anxious at the same time!!! Enjoy your meal.

Another place to visit on my bucket list, I love fresh catch and cooks on the beach, nothing is better

It's at least 20 inches off the ground. Maybe doesn't look like that on the photo.

Beautiful

I used to live on an Asian island. I really miss the food.

Will be going to beach country next week and plan to eat tons of fresh fish.

BTW, this looks amazing!

Now it feels like the overhanging plates could accidentally be tipped off the table by a stray knee or hip.

But I only feel that way because it would totally happen to me.

Thank you! Enjoy your vacation.

Looks amazing. Cooked on the beach?!?!

I lobe brocolinni

Yeah over live fire

I have sand between my teeth just from looking at this

This is what it's all about. Delicious. Amazing presentation. This would cost so much at a restaurant for the presentation alone. Next time someone wants to post and tag themselves as "pro" take note of how natural that food looks. Good plating looks a LITTLE chaotic but not over orchestrated, just like this. Almost as if the food gently floated down from the sky onto the plate. The grouper and the garnishes look like they are just napping together. The shrimp is everywhere it needs to be. Wonderful.

THIS is professional presentation. People that can do this get paid the big bucks.

It looks awesome, although as I scrolled by, I saw the pink rice and wondered why you posted burgers before grilling them, or if it was some kind of mince/tartare dish.

Looks good but title got me

Looks yummy. I’m interested in what grouper tastes like.

Love that place!

Beautiful fish, great job!

This looks beautiful and tasty!

Yum! Grouper isn't found where I'm located so its always a special treat when I find it. The whole thing looks delicious!

that fish is gonna haunt you

Monster hunter meal. "So TASTY!"

Grouper is easily my favorite fish, and this preparation looks amazing.

Do you do catch and cooks regularly? I miss being able to get out and go fishing more often, and bringing a grill along to cook what I caught was always the highlight.

I saw burgers as well. Once I looked closely it made more sense and it looks delicious!

What a feast ! Welcome to Phu Quoc. I also highly suggest you should always check up the price before ordering food at any locations, they do have a tendency to overcharge you there.

Yah was gonna say, had it once years ago on holiday. Developed quite the taste for it. Returned home to realise it‘s unavailable in my country. :(

There is sand in the food, looks delicious

It's a very mild firm white fish, and grilling over fire is the best way to enjoy. We live near Florida and it's a local favorite. Try with drawn butter, its adjacent to lobster in taste and texture.

Haha this is such a nice comment. Thank you kindly!

I'm living in Phu Quoc so I don't really go to restaurants here. I just make this myself. Thank you ! Some restaurants do rip off hapless tourists here which is a shame.

Yes I do spearfishing a lot. Cooking on the beach is one of my favorite things to do.

It's quite a luxurious commodity where it isn't found and even where it's found it's still very prized. In the Mediterranean grouper is commonly found but price can be high due to high demand from tourists and locals alike. You'll have to travel to eat them again haha.

Grouper if properly cooked doesn't taste much like fish. It has white flesh and quite like crab or lobster meat. It has to be cooked just right for the best texture though, if you undercook it it'll be too chewy and if you overcook it it'll be very dry like sand.

Oh yeah that game has good food!

Jesus. The way I’m starving right now that whole spread would be gone in 10 minutes.

Looks absolute amazing

Awesome shot. Love all the different colors.

Thank you! You have great food pics as well:3

Looks awesome, love prawns.

Any restaurants you would recommend? We are visiting end of march from Australia.

For local seafood I often go to K-TIN street food restaurant.

For Vietnamese food Saigonese eatery is nice.

For burgers there's Winston Burger.

Also Rory's beach bar is a nice place for dinner or lu ch as well, run by some aussies who came here ages ago.
