Fried chilli crab - I decided, after picking one up and placing on my plate, that it would be too much of a hassle to eat a crab with fork and spoon, and since it's not a pleasant sight to be digging my fingers into it under hotel circumstances, so... =.= But couldn't put it back either, cos some man was waiting impatiently behind me, haih. So I ended up not eating it - more so that everyone else at the table complained that it was too salty.

Poached salmon - I can never get enough of salmon!!! But apparently, that only works for sashimi salmons, and not cooked ones. I found myself stuffing it whole into my mouth, cos I didn't wanna waste food, but at the same time I was so jelak already. *sweat*

Mussels cooked in soya paste - Or something like that. It's called 'tau jiau' in hokkien - dunno what's the English translation for it. Nut sauce, ka? Anyway, I took two cos mum was raving about how good it was.... but hm, I prefer the ones I had over appetizers to it. Or maybe I was already on a mussel overdose by then. (- -")

 

Vege - Vege is vege la. Nothing to comment.


 
Braised seafood soup - highly disappointing. Needs about half a gallon of salt.


AND THEN IT'S DESSERTS FINALLY! (/^ ^)/

 

Starting with the dark red item and moving to the right:

Fruit jello - I can't tell which fruit, but jello is slightly sourish - much to my liking - and reminded me of the KFC red jelly which comes served with a scoop of icecream. Yeah, tastes pretty much like that, albeit a more consistent texture, and with longan inside.

Then there's the creme caramelle which gains points for taste and texture.

The one with the strawberry perched on top has a very very rich and creamy texture, and a surprising treat of fresh berries inside.

And finally, the one tainted with a bit of green hue is something called a Semolina Pudding. It is a cross between creme caramelle and sago pudding, hehe. Has some sorta spongey texture to it, and I loved it cos it didn't have the sickly sweet taste which tends to infect most puddings.

 

Mango mousse - or so I suspect it's mango, my tastebud was overwhelmed with all the puddings and custards previously. -.- But yeah, isn't it just so pretty? :D

 

Tiramisu - easily the best among all the rest of the dessert items I took. T.T The light spongey cake melts almost instantly when comes in contact with mouth - and it dissolves into a delightful aroma of coffee and chocolate. Topped with the choc-covered coffeebean on top - myaaah, should have went for some more!! *harps in regret*

 

Pretty strawberry pastry - snapshot from my uncle's gf's plate, so I had no idea how it tasted like. But it seems that the pastry turned a tad soggy already, so...
