Fish & Co.
Had dinner with CY there on Sunday. We went pretty early, so it was not full yet, but still compared to the other restaurants at the Suntec basement area, it was relatively the most packed. This was my second visit and my first one was also at the outlet in Suntec, but at different locations because they shifted to another location facing the fountain. We ordered seafood platter for one, swordfish collar, kola tonic and passionfruit soda. Drinks was pretty standard with the former being cola layerd with tonic water and the latter passionfruit syrup (?) topped with soda water. Service was good though they did kind of forget my swordfish collar which I had to remind them about when we were nearly finishing the seafood platter. Seafood platter was good as usual, though the fish was a bit soggy. I loved the grilled calamaris though. Please to note that there's no mussels in the single person version. Nonetheless the swordfish collar was fantastic. It came in two big pieces with chunky meat all over the large bones. We got some stares from the surrounding tables when it arrived. Yes, it was that huge. The deep fried fish didn't have the texture of swordfish steak but was more flaky and nicer. It did look like a huge chunk of deep fried chicken breast meat though and you have to really dig through the crevices to find the meat. It came with this sweet and sour sauce which goes real well with the fish. All in all, for $14.80 it is really worth it. Would go there again just for this. We also saw a family order this whole deep fried fish which seemed kinda out of place in a western restaurant. A caucasian pair was also drinking red wine with their seafood. Hmm... Anyway, total bill came up to $48 and nothing to complain about considering the quality and the portion. For future trips thought I would want to order the big fishy drinks. Initially I thought $6.50 was too much to pay for a normal fruity drink, but actually they were drinks big enough for 2 persons to share. I also realized they serve some cocktails as well. Interesting. Oh and there was this supervisor/captain who looked like Belinda something from local TV, but with a way oversized uniform.
