If you think Spanish cuisine revolves around paella, then Arroz is here to prove you wrong. Located in Soi 53, Arroz, whose name means ‘rice’ in Spanish, is a chic eatery that puts the spotlight on paella’s creamy and often underrated cousin – the arroz meloso.

Led by Victor Burgos, whose portfolio includes working for Michelin-starred restaurants such as The Principal in Hong Kong, this restaurant is on a mission to spin up creative Spanish fare that is bursting with bright and intense flavours. Dive into the eatery’s signature Arroz Meloso special, such as the Black Creamy Rice with Monkfish Cheek, where fresh octopus, savoury rice, and tender monkfish give rise to indescribably good seafood and shellfish flavours.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Spanish eatery without cold starters such as the uber-refreshing Gazpacho Soup that comes with cherries, feta cheese, and bits of crunchy croutons. The Cantabrian Brown Anchovy is also another delightful starter that packs a punch with every bite. Is paella still your first love? Then definitely hit up one of the dining spot’s 10 amazing paellas that span several meat, fish and seafood varieties and are designed to be shared between two or four people. Set in a grand two-storey house, Arroz is a vibrant Spanish eatery that aims to create a bounty of authentic, lip-smacking dishes with products sourced from Spain. (Mar 2018)

THE BUZZ

“The latter span from tapas to paella, all of which have a bright intensity of flavor. The thin slices of jamon iberico explode with umami and nutty notes.” –BK Magazine
