After checking out, and drive out of town about 20-30 minutes, this place was introduce by our friend Choe as she mention that this place serve nice seafood. The night before we had a disappointed seafood meal, hopefully and cross finger this is good.

When we arrive, I thought that this place looks kinda cool but surprisingly, we were the only guest there. Then I thought to myself that, hrmm…this place can go or not…*doubting.

An empty restaurant with we the only guest, so what kind of quality you can think of.


They have indoor and outdoor area. I was told by Choe that in the afternoon, the business is like that but during dinner time, you better get your ass there early as its sardine packed. This place is usually dine by most of the CEO and manager level people.

The food that we order, by the looks of it, it did not disappoint us, looks tempting yet delicious.

Start off our meal with ‘Duck in Kiam Chye soup’ that is totally a great start, sour that opens up your appetite with the flavor in the soup is just perfect. Walap the soup within seconds.

If I am not mistaken this is the ‘Prawn with Pineapple in Coconut Sauce’ is one of the dish that you should not miss. The not so thick in the gravy yet perfect and filled with the sweetness of the pineapple and the prawn that cook in soak in the flavor. Freshness of the prawns detected with hard texture yet juicy. RM20

Next don know what is the name of this dish, as the receipt given very cacat. Only written, prawn, veggie, chicken and this and that, only a key word.

Another good dish combination that goes along very well with rice.

The 'scallop' is a bit small in size but it was pan fried with the gravy topping on top, a bit sweet yet salty is just something you would enjoy.

If not mistaken, this is the ‘Nyonya Fish’ quite big in the size yet the gravy showering on it, sweet, sour and salty with a bit thick in gravy, its good. RM43

This is one of the worst dish of all, not to say that the gravy is not good. Just that the crab that they serve is totally not fresh. Fresh crab meat suppose to be in slices but this crab meat is like soft like toufu. Damm Geli. Complain to the worker, yet he keep saying that they get the grab in the aquarium and its still alive when they capture it. Then told them why is it not fresh yet they keep saying the same thing. If we were given only 1 dead crab or not fresh we understand but the problem was the whole plate is a gone case.

We told them that we are not going to pay then the waiter was like lost and sad yet we ask him to ask the chef to check on the quality and the chef is like flipping in and put back out again. its like WTF! like dat also can ah~ Since the manger is not in that day, we told him that what is the minimal that we have to pay. He mention half and I told him max RM30. That's all. The whole plate of crab cost RM80 and paying RM30 for that dish is consider overpaid. Wish that the manager was there that day.

I have nothing against this place, the food is quite nice compare to the 1 we had yesterday. Just that dissapointed on the crab.
