Excellent place for seafood. We ordered the shark fin soup, kum heong lala, white pepper crab, butter mantis prawn and stir fried brinjal. We were very lucky to have the rare 1.4kg crab available. According to the chef, they only have this size 2-3 times a year. Every dish was very well prepared and delicious. Atmostphere was cosy as well and we could hear the aound of the waves as we enjoyed our dinner. Highly recommended and will return again.
