This unique communal Sunday brunch in a fish steakhouse by one of Australia’s most famous chefs is a seafood lover’s dream come true

If you’ve always wanted to enjoy a leisurely Sunday roast, but with a lot less meat, I’ve got you covered.

Let me direct your attention to FYSH, a one-of-a-kind modern-day “fish steakhouse” that features ethically sourced seafood and fish dishes.

Housed at The Singapore EDITION in Orchard, it is the brainchild of multi-award-winning chef, restaurateur, and author Josh Niland, a pioneer of “whole fish cookery” — you may have seen him on MasterChef Australia.

In keeping with Australia’s favourite weekend tradition, the restaurant has unveiled a special FYSH Roast available only on Sundays with a fish-focused menu designed for sharing. Think a balance of innovative fish, seafood, and meat dishes, with the majority cooked over a charcoal grill.

Before the meal commences, you’ll be greeted with a welcome sight: the FYSH Trolley, showcasing the cuts of the day.

Each diner will then be served a selection of bread and starters like the signature FYSH Egg Tart with trout roe; and the XO sauce-slicked Abrolhos Island Scallop.

If you’re a fan of curry puffs, you’ll probably like the flaky Swordfish Empanadas, with a savoury and mildly-sweet spiced filling that paired oh-so well with the accompanying roast garlic yoghurt.

My dining partners and I also really enjoyed the Charcoal Grilled Slipper Lobster, comprising succulent, fresh-tasting meat seasoned simply with vadouvan (an Indian-inspired blend of spices with French origins) and a squeeze of lime.

Afterwards, move on to the main courses that you can enjoy as individual portions or for sharing across the table.

If you’d rather order a variety of different dishes to share, go for one of the individual courses, like the Mooloolaba Swordfish Schnitzel, Wagyu Beef Chuck Rib, or Yellowfin Tuna Fillet Steak.

There’s also a vegetarian option that looks almost too good to eat: the Flowering Zucchini & Pecorino Pie stuffed with grilled peppers, saffron, basil, and oozy melty cheese.

As for sharing plates, those who must have their meat can go for the Roasted & Glazed Free-Range Duck with chickpea and fennel seed panisse (a sort of fritter); sweet and sour radicchio; juicy, wickedly caramelised BBQ white peaches; and to top it all off, a hazelnut duck sauce.

But in sticking to the whole “fish” theme, I’d recommend the Butterflied Acquna Murray Cod, which boasts mild and clean-tasting flesh with a buttery texture, and the best part, super crispy skin.

It’s even served with grilled padron peppers and pressed roast potatoes on a bed of BBQ tomato chimichurri, alongside garlic aïoli, herbs and shallot vinaigrette, and a crunchy green leaves salad.

Otherwise, order the FYSH Signature (for four pax) for the entire table, starring three different cuts of Dry-Aged Mooloolaba Yellowfin Tuna — merguez sausage, rib-eye steak, and glazed skirt steak.

How often does one get to enjoy tuna that’s been prepared like steak?

It is paired with accompaniments like Café de Paris butter, harissa, chimichurri, and even a tuna bone sauce, so feel free to try different combinations, mix-and-match, and go crazy!

But that’s not all, as you’ll also get to snack on Kombu Fries, Salad of Ox Heart Tomato & Stone Fruit, and our favourite of the lot, addictive Salt & Vinegar Onion Rings with a shatteringly crispy batter.

Keep an eye out for the Dessert Trolley that’ll be rolled out to each table at the end of the meal, and take your pick from a rotating menu of sweet treats like the Trifle of Red Fruits with rose cream, rose jelly, and coconut; Apple Tarte Tatin; and Tarte Tropézienne.

Don’t miss out on the unique Chocolate & Caramel Tart, which incorporates actual murray cod fat; it’s an ultra-decadent dessert paired with a celeriac cream.

The FYSH Roast experience is priced at S$108++ per person and can be enjoyed every Sunday from 12pm to 2.30pm.

If you’d like to elevate the experience by making it a boozy brunch, you can opt for the Australian Bubbles (S$88++) or the Flowing Champagne package (S$118++) for free-flow bubbly.

Both packages are also inclusive of coffee, tea, juices, soft drinks, selected wines, spirits and cocktails — you won’t go wrong with the classic Espresso Martini or FYSH Bloody Mary.

So, if you’re a seafood lovers in need of a special treat, you know where to go!

Reservations can be made here.
