The Ultimate Crab & Durian Buffet @ The Promontory
In case, this is not famous enough, it's located at the boardwalk between Vivo and Sentosa..was a nice walk in the evening when the wind breezes past..nice for couples to take a cooling walk in the evening, hand in hand..Went with my colleagues yesterday..was a lucky reservation as they are fully booked for the entire promotion period...was "amazed" at the crowd yesterday despite a following working day..
honestly speaking, thou the view from the "restaurant" is fabulous, the whole tentage thingy makes it feel like er-hm a "white affair"..
my fav~ fresh, succulent prawns...
their appetizers r good~ in fact, maybe the only food i enjoyed...crab salad (u can taste real crabmeat), baby octopus, top shell..
Mr Giant~ 1.5L of beer..seriously tt's the "name" on their menu..
oooh see that green patch on my plate?? i love tt dressing...wasabi mustard...
see the queue?? guess what they q-ing for.. (answer at the last photo)...
we waited n waited n waited for this...q was so horrible tt we waited till nearly the end of the dinner before we could gt servings..
duck salad~
spring roll and crab claw...not nice!
mini fried buns and soft shell crabs~ not nice!!!!! the soft shell crabs too flour-y...so much flour tt i din gt to taste the soft shell crab...
now comes the "all types of crabs"...salted egg, chilli, black pepper, etc etc...anyway i ate 2 and i gave up..cox the meat all soft soft de...dun have that "sturdy" feeling...hahahha...anyway NOT NICE!!!
durian puree...fattening thou nice~ lol
see..this is what the pple r q-ing for..n this q lasted from the beginning till the end!!! fresh durians from the "shell"...the uncles (poor them!) standing them n opening them on the spot n distributing them out.. Kisses XOXO Friday, June 24, 2011
