Last week we had our company's quarterly sales meeting, we were then invited to have our dinner at South Sea Seafood Restaurant, 229, Jalan Dua, Kampung Baru Subang.
Apparently South Sea had over 20 years of experience ! Opened back in 1989, 2 years after I was born :) Well, for those who prefer to survey more before you head up there, you may want to google their webiste:- http://www.southsea.com.my/
I can say that they are pretty proud of their website. I find it very interactive, they have 3 different themes to choose from:-
The First theme: Lobster
You can slowly see that one by one those fresh sea creatures were being hooked away and lastly the chef !
The Second theme: Crab
The Third theme: Wild Endangered Fish
They even have an interactive menu..so just go to their website and try it !
Overall, they are trying to claim that they served the freshest seafood in town !
Their tag line is Alive & Kickin'..interesting.
The interior of the restaurant, nicely lit up.
We arrived pretty early at 6pm, hence the place is still empty.
They have a small fish pond in the middle of the restaurant.
The place is almost packed during dinner time !
At the corner of the restaurant, they also have many large aquarium display on all types of sea creatures that you can think of.
Giant Lobster rm39.80 per 100g
Geoduck rm18.80 per 100g
Fresh abalone rm32.00 each
Fresh Escargot
Snow Crab rm24.80 per 100g
Spotted Coral Grouper rm22.00 per 100g (very ex man..these must be endangered species)
Look at my size..I'm no other than KING Crab !
Tiger Prawns..calling 'Eat me !' 'EAT me !"
Ok, let's introduce the REAL Food...

Indonesian Fried Rice

This was the first time I've ever tried Indonesian Fried Rice. It was interesting as the fried rice was topped with deep fried garlic, shaved coconut & thin slices of crabstick. It makes the entire eating experience..CRUNCHIER !
Salted Egg Yolk Crab
Rating: Taste ♥♥♥ Freshness ♥♥♥♥ Overall ♥♥♥♥
It was generously covered with Salted Egg Yolk...it was so good that you just can't help but lick every inch of it ! Not too salty, simply delicious !
And last but not least, the DESSERT !
Melted Ice Blended Vanilla Ice Cream with Mango Cubes & Sago (I named it myself :P )
Rating: Taste ♥ Overall ♥
Honestly, I'm alil disappointed with this dessert. It should have been tastier with more sweetness in it (Oh, I'm such a sweet tooth !)
A Happy tummy is a Full tummy..we were ALL satisfied with our dinner. You can also see that we whacked all types of drinks..from their fresh coconut juice to their fresh fruit juices (they were really good) to bottomless beer !
Unfortunately since the dinner was on the company, I did not get the final bill (hence no price indicated here) :( But according to some of my colleagues who have been here, it is EX. But if money comes second, food comes first..haha..then this place is highly recommended for the freshness of the seafood and overall simply good food !
Some sights not to be missed in this restaurant..
I would say the interior of this place is pretty luxurious for a seafood restaurant.
The Ladies Toilet
The most interesting Gent's Toilet
(Okay now, how did I managed to get in there? The toilet was being cleaned at that time, and I heard so much about it, I actually get the permission from the cleaner lady to let me in :P )
You may literally pee on the aquarium ! while the fishes are swimming around staring at......YOU ! :P
South Sea, be it for the freshness of the seafood or the cool interior design, definitely
a place to visit !
