Super Super Cold Air Conditioning @ 譽居

Overall the food here is over priced and you need to pay a 10% service charge as well as a tea charge per person.
The air conditioning was too cold that it gives you headaches!

Red bean curd pork knuckles with rice
Very bland.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

 

Dried shrimps and spring onion rice rolls
Overall these were ok, but not smooth enough.
They were not too oily.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

Congee wtih crab
The congee was appauling and there was so many pieces of tiny crab shells in it.
The odd crab shell here and there is expected but not in every mouthful!
I have had crab congee else where and it is not as bad as this and the crab was not fresh.

Interesting chopsticks
The tips of the chopsticks are frosted.

Great translation
Noodles with shrimps! I think they mean shrimp roe.

Seafood pot @ Masamura Sushi Restaurant

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Carpaccio sushi salmon and tuna
This was bascially the usual sushi topped with sliced onions, a slice of lemon and some Italian dressing.
Overall they tasted quite pleasant and it was just like carpaccio with rice.

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Steamed egg with urchin
This tasted too salty.

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Seafood hotpot with crab
There was not enough soup to cover the contents when it came, so asked for more broth so that the contents could be ensured that they got cooked.
The crab did not taste that fresh and it came straight from the Freezer because there was ice particles on it.
The cutlery for the crab had to be requested.

Basil leaves and frog meat @ 泰式燒王 Chai Rung Thai Food

As I know of, this is one of the shops that do fresh cockles, I mean REAL fresh,
while I was eating them, I thought I was seeing them twitch, then after eating half I confirmed they were partly alive when I poked them with chopsticks, it really twitched!!

Despite them being alive, it tasted so good with the chilli sauce, and full of cockle juice. (Not everyones cup of tea)

The other two dishes I ordered were also delicious, fried basil leaves and frog meat, and curried clams with roti.

The basil leaves and frog meat reminded me of Chiuchow dishes, where the leaves are fried to a transparent green. The basil leaves were nice and fragrant, and the frog meat had a crunchy outer layer with strong garlic soy sauce.

Finally the curried clams, when it came, the dish was filled with curry sauce, which looked like golden crab yolk, it wasnt very spicy and had a slight tinge of tomato in it.
It it slightly thick in consistency just like starch gravies with strings of egg in it.

The sauce was so good for dipping the freshly made roti, flakey and crispy, and there was so much sauce left over, we ordered an extra roti to finish the sauce.

The only thing I wanted that wasnt available was their native Thai dish (taion), its supposed to be an undeveloped chicken egg without the shell
(泰式雞仔蛋). I just like to try anything, but shame it wasnt available.
