Seafood Pirates Review: $3 Oyster Omelette Rice And Seafood Ramen At Yishun Hawker Centre

Only the freshest seafood at Seafood Pirates Like many Singaporeans, I’m always out for a good bargain. Therefore, when my colleague raved about the $3 oyster omelette rice at Seafood Pirates , my interest was certainly piqued.

Seafood Pirates Review: $3 Oyster Omelette Rice And Seafood Ramen At Yishun Hawker Centre

And my little excursion to Yishun Park Hawker Centre was indeed rewarding. Not only was I pampered with fat and juicy oysters at an affordable quotation, but I was also treated to a bowl of toothsome seafood soup.

This is best reflected in the Pirate’s Ultimate ($12/$14) – a hearty soup peppered with a smorgasbord of seafood such as crayfish and oysters. The base is a chicken bone stock, which is stewed through the night to tease out the essence of the bones.

Stacked on top of it is a fish bone and dried sole fish stock, which is pressure-cooked for ninety minutes. Effusing a fragrance redolent of the sea, it spiked the broth with a burst of umami.

Added before the soup is poured in, it defines the savour and meshes the other elements together into a cohesive medley. Owing to its fresh quality, the succulent meat was peeled off from its shell with minimal effort.

Special mention goes out to their prawns, which were of substantial size and thickness. To differentiate Seafood Pirates from the typical seafood soup, Darren spiced up his soup with a few personal touches. The touch of lemon injected zest to the savoury paste, which heightened the gentle taste of the batang and relieved your taste buds of the soup’s bold taste.

If your preferred form of carbs is noodles, top up your seafood soup with their Ramen ($1.50) instead. The other signature of Seafood Pirates is their value-for-money Oyster Omelette Rice ($3) . With large oysters, generous servings of rice, and a blanket-like omelette, the dish was an enticing treat for my famished belly.

The omelette had an egg -citing silkiness, which married well with the fluffy rice and succulent oysters. The drizzle of sweet soy sauce was the icing on the cake, as its candied tang complemented the briny flavour of the oysters.
