King Crab Restaurant...

Went out for dinner today at King Crab for wifey's birthday. Mom and Dad's treat. Brought babies along, and for some reason today parking was packed along the road, so getting babies off proved a bit of a chore.

Ordered the Crab with Creamy Sauce (Lai Yau Hai), Fried 4 veges in shrimp paste (Sei Tai Tin Wong), Pork Belly with Yam (Wu Tao Kau Yuk), Clams in Superior Soup (Siong Tong Lala) and Steamed Silver Snapper.

Overall quite disappointing, bar the crab's still-excellent sauce and the lala. The Pork Belly and veges were so-so, and the fish quite abysmal, and not cheap at that. Crabs were rather small, and flesh not firm. And true to form, the last order (a fried bread roll) was forgotten. Service was as usual chaotic.

Price for 1.5kg of crabs about RM60, the lacklustre fish was a whopping RM70, the rest of the prices were quite fair, and hence not memorable. I don't know why we put up with this in light of the deteriorating food quality. I think we'll be giving this place a miss in the future.
