LOOOOL~~~~~! Although you weren't there, but you were the subject of discussion. Brought her sister/bro-in-law, who are seasoned batam visitors (and planning on living in Batam permanently with their kids in a few years' time), and they were floored with the quality (no MSG and fresh) and price* in downtown batam. Asked how on earth we knew this joint, had Denny chit chat - and that's where you came in LOL!
price* : RP650K ~ SG67
- Drunken Prawns (300g). Not in photo. Was already completely devoured (even soup) by the time pic was taken LOOOOL!
- 3 x Flower Crabs (my personal favorite over sri-lankan crabs in Marine Live since can't get bigger sri lankan ones and the flower crabs' shells were much easier to crack and peel-off with meat as sweet.
- Pakis ~~~ (slurpppp)
- Big Clams - the sauce was WONDERFUL. Exactly like SG's East Coast Red House Chilicrab's chili sauce.
- HongKong Style Braised Garoupa (no need to say further.. .those who tried have already given 2 thumbs up including local friends
)
- Scallops - Friday fresh replenishment - we picked the scallops off the supplier's truck (coincidental) LOL!
- 4 plates of rice + 2 plum juice + 1 Tea-o-beng
Major note : Really must mention that one knows Marine Live Seafood thru "John" a forum member. Else your bill will be different. It was still value-for-money, but I saw my bill to be ~4% higher than usual - and it was Denny's wife behind the counter who was processing the bill and she doesn't/can't bother who is who - until Denny tells her (and make sure one sees Denny actually telling her too LOL). So my bill was rectified.
Trivia : Sent them off at ferry terminal. Heard over the Sindo-ferry counter that return-trips on Sunday/Monday no more. Take note.
