This is for the benefit of outstation visitors.
the place looks like a semi cavern pirates from the Malaccan Straits would feel right at home.
You also need to be conversant in either hokkein or mandarin even to the foreign worker or your order will be walking the plank.
As you drive out from the ferry terminal you won't miss it.It is right smack in front with the large unchopped tree as its focal identity.The amount of cars that are parked by the sidewalk and diners inside will make one curious enough to go try out the dishes.
When you enter the cavern and look for a seat,the order taker will come and yap to you to go make your selection at the front counter.The large selection of seafood plunder will blow you away at first until you have to bellow your order over the din of clanging woks,raging fires and hissing steamers.Stay calm don't break a sweat and look like you know what the heck you are doing.
Upon returning you will discover that the drinks have arrived together with a strange rice bowl of curry/rassam dip to go with square papadoms.At this point you have to recheck if you are in an Indian restaurant or a chinese one.Ok.Chinese.
Because the place inside was jam packed,we decided to sit outside on the pavement.Never do this.
Soon we discovered why not many sat there even though it was cooler.No need to go to St Gregory Spa.You will be treated to a sewer sauna with smells that remind you of some ghastly discharge from the kitchen sink that you try to unclog when you pour hot water over it.
Fast forward to the food now.Honestly,the amount of sugar they used in the food would enable a dentist to change his merc every month.And they love using mayo,so if you have young kids they would rate it 5 stars just based on the use of mayo and mayo alone.
The only consolation is the food here is fresh,with vast variety and is cheaper.
But really you won't miss anything if you give this a miss unless you like to snap running rats,lounging lizards and crawling cockroach pictures.There are so many other seafood places you can try with better ventilation than this outlet.
