I really didn’t plan to wind up back on Northwest Expressway—especially after all the naysaying I’ve done about its low standards and high prices—but here I am again, bib in hand, calling a truce. What brought me back wasn’t a new half-hearted fusion spot or even another visit to the splendid Dulce Vida up the street. It was something I hadn’t seen before – an Asian seafood boil.
I had to try it.
Since my first real crawfish feast down in Louisiana this past spring, I’ve been obsessed with boils—the spices, the steam, the strange communal beauty of it all. So when readers started whispering about a new place called SAT Asian Seafood & Bar, 4243 Northwest Expressway, I had to find out if an Oklahoma City take on the boil—filtered through an Asian flavor lens—could satisfy my craving for all things mud-buggery.
