If you have booked a date to visit the pearl island, do not forget to enjoy the 5 outstanding dishes shared by Crowne Plaza Phu Quoc Starbay in this article!

1. Fried rice with crab meat 

Fresh and delicious crabs are directly caught by people offshore, when brought back, they are cleaned, boiled, filtered to remove the fresh meat and fried with white rice, creating the famous crab meat fried rice dish of the pearl island. You can’t take your eyes off the pink-red color of fresh crab meat, the silk-like yellow color of eggs blended into each grain of rice, the green color of vegetables and the red color of tomatoes. The delicious and rich flavor of the dish will make you remember forever. 

2. Half dried cuttlefish

Half dried cuttlefish is one of the outstanding dishes of the pearl island that is loved by many visitors. Half dried cuttlefish converges all delicious elements combined from fresh squid and dried squid, so when eaten, it will have a perfect natural sweetness and chewiness that is very appealing.

To make the best half dried cuttlefish, fresh squid must be cleaned and dried in the sun (only half dried). When grilled with chili salt or grilled satay, it will create a delicious and attractive half dried cuttlefish dish. Enjoying half dried cuttlefish while it’s still hot will be even more delicious. Take a sip from a glass of craft beer to feel the full aroma and crunchy flavor of this dish. 

3. Steamed squid with ginger & onion

Fresh squid will be carefully selected, cleaned and steamed with ginger & onion. Each piece of squid meat is juicy and hot when served with spicy ginger and dipped in sweet and spicy ginger garlic fish sauce, guaranteeing your satisfaction. The chef will use Phu Quoc fish sauce to make a special dipping sauce – this is also the soul of the famous steamed squid with ginger and onion. You should eat steamed squid with ginger while it is still hot to enjoy the ethereal and sweet taste of the dish. 

4. Bivina Beer Steamed Black Tiger Prawn Bivina

Beer is produced according to a separate recipe, with a mellow and refreshing taste suitable for Vietnamese customers. This is also the main ingredient used by chef Crowne Plaza Phu Quoc Starbay in steamed black tiger shrimp, creating a unique flavor that every visitor will remember forever.

Delicious fresh sea tiger prawns served with a cup of salt and pepper lemon, a seemingly simple combination that explodes the delicious taste of black tiger shrimp mixed with the salty taste of pure salt, making the eater unable to stop. 

5. Grilled skewered chicken

Each piece of chicken is cut into squares, marinated with a special spice mixture, and skewered with 1 piece of bell pepper and grilled over hot coals. The meat is grilled to just cooked, so it is very soft and soaked with marinated spices that will conquer the most fastidious visitors.
