Bigeye Grouper – The Essence of Nha Trang's Coral Reefs
Caught from the coral reefs off Nha Trang – Khanh Hoa, the bigeye grouper is one of the more special groupers, growing in a natural environment rich in minerals and strong currents. That is what gives its flesh a smooth white texture, firm, delicately sweet and low in fat – ranked by connoisseurs among the most "premium" sea fish.
With its distinctive large, bulging eyes and bright, eye-catching scales, the bigeye grouper impresses not only with its unique looks but also with its refined, wholesome flavour and high nutritional value.
