Brazil grill makes fish delish

CALLING all seafood lovers! Samba Grill has launched a new lunch menu with delicious whole fish barbecued over hot coals starring on the new midday menu.
Enjoy succulent, whole snapper served as a share platter, alongside calamari, king prawns and mahi mahi fillets and in true Samba-style, the fish will be delivered to your table on a hot lava rock accompanied by cassava chips, salads and delicious dipping sauces.
Samba owner Steve Beak said although the restaurant is best known for its unique Rodizio grilled meats and vegetarian feasts, the decision to add more seafood to the menu was driven by customer demand.
“Our fish and prawn curries are very popular, but we’ve been getting some special requests for grilled fish and share platters, especially at lunchtime,” he said.
“We thought both ideas were great so decided to combine them.”
Steve said there is something pretty special about fresh fish grilled over coals, especially when accompanied by a glass of wine of champagne.
“With our riverside location, we’re sure the whole fish platter will be a big hit for long, lazy lunches and the takeaway option will suit the picnic crowds,” he said.
The new lunch menu is the latest addition to the Brazilian-style cuisine offered at Samba Grill. The Rodizio feast is still available with prime cuts of marinated beef, pork, lamb and chicken skewered and grilled over charcoal served for dinner from Tuesday to Saturday.
Samba Grill is located on Gympie Terrace, Noosaville, and is open for lunch Tuesday to Sunday and for dinner from Tuesday to Saturday.
Samba is fully licensed with BYO also available. Bookings can be made by phoning 5449 9577 or visit www.sambagrill.com.au.
