Together with Mr. Ian Ong and Mr. Tan Tiang Chai Frederick, we went there first time because it was nearby their house. We spent about $120 for the food.Another staff came to take order because we want to know the market price before placing an order.

Together with Mr. Ian Ong and Mr. Tan Tiang Chai Frederick, we went there first time because it was nearby their house. We spent about $120 for the food.Another staff came to take order because we want to know the market price before placing an order. We order 2 crabs (This is a must try dish although each crab is $40) with other dishes as follows:
- Steamed red garoupa: the fish is so fresh and taste really good, Mr. Frederick Tan loves it so much!
- The Scallop Asparagus ($15) was nothing like the menu's photo, it only had a few tiny scallops. For that kind of price, I would rather order two different vegetable dishes.
The crabs are picked live from those huge styrofoam boxes and brought straight into the kitchen - unlike some places (which shall remain unnamed) where the crabs are picked outside, yes, but somehow crabs of a different size & grade emerge from the kitchen and I shall say it again: crab prices are getting ridiculous in zi char restaurants.
Overall, I am impressed with the freshness of all the food especially its seafood. Nice taste and I think the chef did a great job too!
Conclusion: Not bad for a first try. Pretty good food that was served promptly, service was not bad too!
