I generally like the food at Long Beach & Jumbo. for this evening out with a good friend, I ordered a 6-course set for 4pax. we had a good chat, most enjoyable dinner & pleasant evening.
the menu said we start with a 姜葱 lobster with ginger & scallions – this was good standard as expected & I ate a lot of the scallions too.
for this night though, the restaurant served us the seafood fried rice & sambal spinach first. the menu item was asparagus but the restaurant said they ran out so we chose 蒜茸garlic spinach. when it came to the table it was sambal spinach. not ideal, but the spinach was nice – that’s what counted! the seafood fried rice was just ok, average – too average i think for a popular restaurant
the steamed cod (top photo) was very good!
the chilli crab was decent in taste but for me it had no kick. all the foreign tourists in the crowded restaurant were dutifully ordering this and clearly relishing it, so it was good! anyway, my wife could not take too much chilli this evening so nothing lost.
the ice fruit sago dessert was very refreshing, a little sweet but no sweeter than usual ice jelly at the hawker centre.there were lots of foreign tourists trying out chilli crab so even the mild version was quite good though I liked it to be better.
