Before the mains arrive and the cocktails flow, Azure Beach Club sets the tone with some of Boracay’s most indulgent seafood appetizers. Fresh, fiery, and full of flavor—these starters deserve their moment in the spotlight. 1. Fresh Oysters (½ or Dozen) Served with a passion fruit mignonette, Azure’s Fine de Claire No. 3 oysters are a must for seafood lovers. Briny, sweet, and beautifully presented, they’re the perfect way to begin a beachfront meal. 2. Baked Scallops A crowd favorite for good reason. These creamy, indulgent bites are topped with mentaiko, Cheddar, and Parmesan. Pair with a glass of white wine or the Fly High gin cocktail for a rich, rewarding bite.<figure data-trix-attachment="{&quot;contentType&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;filename&quot;:&quot;2.png&quot;,&quot;filesize&quot;:346475,&quot;height&quot;:540,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://haspcms-chroma-hospitality.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/Yeeuu0JF5wT5DGFw3tBpUeEB7r7OhgIix9zMSuIh.png&quot;,&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://haspcms-chroma-hospitality.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/Yeeuu0JF5wT5DGFw3tBpUeEB7r7OhgIix9zMSuIh.png&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:960}" data-trix-content-type="image/png" data-trix-attributes="{&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Baked Scallops&quot;,&quot;presentation&quot;:&quot;gallery&quot;}" class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--png"><a href="https://haspcms-chroma-hospitality.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/Yeeuu0JF5wT5DGFw3tBpUeEB7r7OhgIix9zMSuIh.png"><img src="https://haspcms-chroma-hospitality.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/Yeeuu0JF5wT5DGFw3tBpUeEB7r7OhgIix9zMSuIh.png" width="960" height="540"><figcaption class="attachment__caption attachment__caption--edited">Baked Scallops</figcaption></a></figure>3.
