    Sam You Restaurant 三友冷气酒家

    The dry butter prawns at Sam You Restaurant is certainly worth the try. Each strand of butter strips is rich and packed with flavour, while providing the prawns a more in-depth flavour. It is also topped with curry leaves and a bit of chopped chilli padi, giving it that extra kick that it needs. The prawns are also fresh and plump, and bouncy to the touch! In short, you can simply just 'whack' on those prawns till your heart's content, don't worry about the rice. 

    Tips

    Reservations recommended.

    Things to expect

    A pretty standard Chinese restaurant that offers wedding and event services.

    Best with

    Tea.

    Pantai Seafood RestaurantPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Pantai Seafood Restaurant is home to many aquatic beings - the only thing is, they won't be alive for long considering the turnover rate of the restaurant to be pretty high. Anyway, they have a wide array of seafood, as well as method of cooking. The butter-style, which may not be the most popular, is quite delicious to say the least. Lovely strands of fried butter are served alongside perfectly cooked prawns on a bed of lettuce. It's a simple dish but requires quite the skills to make too.

    Tips

    Reservations for private rooms available.

    Things to expect

    A pretty huge restaurant with tanks of seafood.

    Best with

    Tea.
