I met a good friend of mine yesterday (Thursday 16/08/19) at Central Station Utrecht. It was raining and well, we didn't go further into the city center and get wet again. So we decided to look around the station and find a restaurant for dinner. We went for the Seafood Bar restaurant because of its decoration and because it was not that busy. We were attended cordially, brought to a table and I sat in the couch. First thing I noticed, is that the couch is not a comfortable seat if you are a short person like me(1.60 cm or less). In that case please take the chair. We order wine, a glass of French rose (Grenache) and a glass of Spanish white wine (Verdejo/Viura). It was served properly, filled above the half of the glass. For the same price (around 4.75 EUR) I have been served much less wine in similar class restaurant. For food, we decided to share the Mixed Grill for 2 people + fries as extra. It had fish, lobster, shrimps, and mussels. The cutlery was served and the table prepared. Each of us received 2 sachets with a wet paper to clean our hands. In other restaurants you get warm water with lemon or just 1 sachet. I rather prefer the warm water to clean my hands. Lets talk about the food. I love lobster but I dont want to see them live in the aquarium. It produces me a guilty feeling. Well, I had no other option it was ordered and I know it tastes good. The portion for 2 was well calculated. My friend and I are good eaters :-). The fish was grilled with a green sauce that made it very tasty, and sprayed with samphire, which gave it the salty flavour. The shrimps were big and we could get enough from it. The same as the lobster. The mussels were cooked in tomato sauce. It was okish. We didnt get the WOW factor but we were satisfied and concluded the food was good in general, being the fish the most tasty from the plate. We think the price is reasonable. 5O EUR each including 4 glasses of wine and the tip. It was a relaxed experience. Well, it was raining and there were not...

Omdat ik wat belangrijks te vieren had en liefhebber ben van seafood afgelopen week (weer) gegeten bij The Seafoodbar Utrecht.

Toen ik wilde reserveren kreeg ik een melding dat dit op het door mij gewenste tijdstip niet meer kon. Omdat ze maximaal 20% van de plaatsen beschikbaar houden voor reserveringen. Dat dit beleid was wist ik al. Dus heb ik gekozen voor een ander tijdstip daar vlakbij op dezelfde dag. Dat kon prima.

Bewust gekozen voor meerdere gangen (kleinere) gerechten in plaats van een van de Fruits de Mers, Mixed Grills of plateaus. Ruime keuze dus voor de diverse (persoonlijke) voorkeuren. Het goede van beiden is dat er sowieso met verse producten wordt gewerkt.

In eerste instantie had ik wat moeite met kiezen wat te bestellen. Daarom via een shortlist een uiteindelijke keuze gemaakt. Geen spijt van want ik heb genoten van smaakvol lekker eten en mooie bijpassende wijnen.

De afspraak die ik met de ober/sommelier heb gemaakt was: ik kies de gerechten en hij suggereert een bijpassende wijn. Zo ontstond een prettig 5-gangendiner.

De start was gegratineerde oesters (3 st.) met Hollandaise saus, spinazie en parmezaan. Met een glas witte wijn: Cataratto Chardonnay Irena (Italië, Sicilië). De kenmerkende ziltige smaak van de oesters overheerste niet. Dat geldt ook voor de karakteristieke (meer pittige) smaken van de Hollandaise saus en parmezaan. Door deze uitgesproken smaken samen te brengen en te combineren met spinazie proefde ik een heel prettig mondgevoel. En heel mooi evenwicht tussen vanuit de oesters licht ziltige tonen enerzijds en karaktervolle tinten van de Hollandaise saus en parmezaan anderzijds. Qua temperatuur lekker warm bovendien.

Daarna Coquilles met huisgemaakte tapenade, zongedroogde tomaten en cashewnoten (3 st.). Met als bijpassende witte wijn een glas Picpoul de Pinet, La Croix Gratiot (Languedoc, Frankrijk). Het goed bereiden is best een uitdaging en een knappe prestatie als dat ook lukt. Het resultaat is dan een mooie balans tussen zachtheid in smaak, mooie kleur (maximaal een heel lichtbruine kleur) met een stevige bite. Dat ging in twee etappes: de eerste keer waren ze aan een kant gewoon goed. Maar aan de andere kant niet. Aan die kant weliswaar ook lichtbruin maar toch te donker met nog donkerder tinten daaromheen. Dat maakte het geheel taai van smaak. De ober en keuken wilden graag een herkansing. Die tweede keer was die mooie balans gelukkig weer terug.

Vervolgens Kaviaar Perle Imperial 30 gr. Geserveerd met zalm, blini’s, crème fraîche en walnoten. Met als bijpassende champagne: Collet Brut Art Deco, Chardonnay/Pinot Noir/Meunier, (Aÿ, Frankrijk). Met de diverse onderdelen heb ik kleine gebakjes gemaakt. Bourgondisch knutselen is leuk. Hoewel erg lekker van smaak bleef de vooraf verwachte (of gehoopte?) wow-factor uit.

Toen kreeftensoep met een echt heel mooie en uitstekend bijpassende Rioja Blanco “Selección Monica Martinez”, Gregorio Martinez, (Rioja, Spanje). De soep was lekker vol en zacht van smaak; niet te waterig. De witte Rioja was in meerdere opzichten heel bijzonder. Rioja wit komt veel minder voor als de rode versie. Dit is echt bij uitstek DE lekkerste witte wijn die ik ooit geproefd en gedronken heb!!!!!. De wow-factor kwam hier alsnog 😊. Een wijn om echt met smaak en aandacht te drinken. Wellicht vooral voor speciale gelegenheden :).

Daarna een paar oesters: Speciale Geay No. 3. (Marennes-Oléron, Frankrijk). Met wederom een glas Rioja Blanco “Selección Monica Martinez”, Gregorio Martinez, (Rioja, Spanje). Normaliter eet ik oesters puur. Deze keer op advies van de ober toch een klein beetje peper en citroensap gebruikt. Dat maakte de combinatie met de wijn een heel mooi en compleet geheel qua smaakbeleving.

Als afsluiter een fijne dessertwijn: Recioto della Valpolicella Classico, Italië. Donkerrood, Mooi zacht en prettig zoet van smaak met in mijn beleving tinten van stroop.

Prima prijs-kwaliteit verhouding. Heel vriendelijk en gastvrij personeel. Het was wat mij betreft een bourgondisch zeer...

The restaurant interior looks quite pleasant to the eye. Unfortunately, this concludes the list of the good things about The Seafood Bar. Firstly, we were rejected to sit because "all the tables were reserved". However, when we opened Google Maps we saw that there was an available spot JUST IN 10 MINUTES. We, without much thought, booked it and showed to the hostess who looked quite bewildered by such a trick of ours. After our order was taken they brought us our drinks where they managed to mix up the big water bottle with a small one (fortunately, it was quickly resolved). The presentation of the Caesar salad with salmon was below average, the salmon itself was to write home about. Fruits De Mer had a better presentation, but the taste was absolutely disappointing with a stale crab as a cherry on top. When asked about the stale crab the waitress took it with her BARE HANDS, brought it somewhere, then brought it back to us and stated that "the chef informed that the crab was received yesterday" and nothing can be done. Moreover, the seafood forks were too big for the seashells, the lobster crackers felt old and overused. All in all, I cannot recommend this restaurant. It is totally not worth the price you're...

My friend and I had a nice lunch there. We shared a platter of Fruits de Mer, oysters and some desserts. Everything was super fresh and delicious. Also, I liked their simple but stylish design.
