With Manhattan Fish Market outlets in almost every major shopping area, it's quite surprising that I've only started trying it this year. To celebrate the end of my exams, me and my best friends went to eat at Manhattan Fish Market @ Jcube, which is located upstairs at the 4th floor, above the ice-skating rink. We were asked if we preferred to be seated inside or outside, and we chose to sit outside. We sat at a table overlooking the ice-skating rink, which was a wonderful view to look at whenev
With Manhattan Fish Market outlets in almost every major shopping area, it's quite surprising that I've only started trying it this year. To celebrate the end of my exams, me and my best friends went to eat at Manhattan Fish Market @ Jcube, which is located upstairs at the 4th floor, above the ice-skating rink. We were asked if we preferred to be seated inside or outside, and we chose to sit outside. We sat at a table overlooking the ice-skating rink, which was a wonderful view to look at whenever we are bored. A waitress came over to explain to us the promotions, set lunches available, but she was quite inaudible and spoke too fast. It doesn't really matter anyway because most of the things are quite self-explanatory.
Later, we ordered the Weekday Set Lunch ($19.90 for 2 Cheesy Fish & Chips) and a Dory Fish & Chips set lunch. The Weekday Set Lunch included one Main Course (Cheesy Fish & Chips) and Soup of the Day (Mushroom Soup). You have to top-up for a drink. However, the separate set lunch only included the Main Course. The total cost came up to $14 each, and so please get even-numbered of friends if you want to eat at Manhattan.
Nevertheless we split the soup so it's kind of fair to all of us
The serving of the Cheesy Fish & Chips was too big even for starving people like us. We should have bought 2 set lunches and shared among ourselves ;D There was mayonnaise and veggies to go along. The fries was delicious, while the outer layer/skin of the fish was a bit too fried - and hence also kind of repulsive - for my liking (my friend echoes the same sentiments) and we dug out the insides to eat instead. The insides of the fish were super soft and succulent which is good. They can improve on the outer layer to achieve a better overall effect. The veggies are ordinary... I don't like veggies and this is not very nice so I didn't continue eating after one mouthful :X
The Mushroom Soup was very lovely, there was lots of mushrooms in there and I loved every bit of it! Maybe I ate all of the soup, that's why I was a bit too full for the rest of the main course... but trust me, you will want to order that soup! We ordered Ice-Lemon Tea for the drinks (not much choices, either Lemon Tea, or Coke or Sprite, I think.) and it was quite refreshing. It's the type with real lemons + tea rather than those canned drinks type of lemon tea. Not bad
Overall, the experience here is quite lovely.
