Qingpeng Steamed Seafood 青蓬海上捞 @ Shenzhen

Seafood is one of nature’s best offer. All you need is for your seafood to be fresh, then the cooking is secondary. All you need is steam and you can get a really good seafood dinner.

I have been to Haishanglao 海上捞 just before the pandemic with the family, but it seemed to be rebranded to Qingpeng. But the formula remains the same – take fresh, live seafood and clean them; with minimal preparation (add garlic, vermicelli and herbs), present and steam them in special built-in pressure steamer at the table.

And after steaming for different duration of time, they came out perfect. Most of the seafood were naturally sweet and filled with umami.

You don’t really need any condiments. But if you really do, there’s a sauce bar that you can take from with some side dishes and fruits.

And there’s the highlight of the restaurant – the king crab that is always sold at a heavy discounted price. The seafood in the store is temporarily maintained with non-polluting seawater, and the store has always adhered to the rule that the live seafood in the store should not exceed 48 hours before they are sold.

There’s enough crab for everyone, and it tend to get a bit boring after your fifth section of the legs. But it was sweet nectar from the sea and you can not get any fresher than this.

And at the end, there’s the porridge to enjoy. All the juices of the seafood dripped into the porridge that was cooked with pressurised steam. Delicious.
