七星斑 7 Stars Grouper at Maniam Fresh Seafood Ujong Pasir Melaka
The leopard coral grouper is highly-valued as a food fish and is sold in both the live and chilled reef fish food trade, centered in Hong Kong. Leopard coral grouper tail, also known as the 7 Stars Grouper (in Chinese, 七星斑) is sold by Maniam Fresh Seafood stall in Ujong Pasir, Melaka. This coral trout, is a type of marine-ray fish that are found in the Western Pacific Ocean, from east coast of Thailand and Malaysia. This 3 kg 7 Star Grouper has a tender yet bouncy flesh texture that flakes nicely. The freshly translucent flesh also has a mild taste of sweetness that linger inside the mouth. The most common way to retain its freshness is by steaming it. 7 Stars Grouper is very nice to eat. I saw this 3 kg fish at Maniam Fresh Seafood stall in Ujong Pasir this morning.
