Pantai Seafood Village, Round 3
Not knowing where to eat and Nee craving for seafood, I decided to just drive to Kayu Ara’s Pantai Seafood Village for a quick dinner. Well, this is my third visit to the restaurant. You can read my first and second visit by clicking on the links.
Upon arriving, the dinner crowd hasn’t really arrived in full capacity. As it was only two of us, we were seated upstairs this time where the tables were smaller and the environment was generally quieter too.
The waiter came and recommended us a few dishes. We wanted to have curry crabs but they didn’t have curry flavour and the waiter suggested sweet and sour, which also has spiciness in it. It turned out to be a mistake as their sweet and sour didn’t really cut it. Nee was disappointed with the crabs. Try not to order this, if possible. The sweet and sour crab came with a loaf of bread at RM3 per stick. The bread has a different texture, something like fish / chicken meat instead of the fluffy texture.
We also ordered their braised home made tofu, that came with a piece a abalone meat on it. The gravy tasted like the gravy of the mushroom and vegetable dish that you always have during a 7 course Chinese meal. The tofu was good, soft and smooth but not the gravy.
Deep fried mantis prawn cooked in kam heong style. Crunchy and a little spicy. Not too bad.
The bill came close to RM100, with the crab taking up RM39 and tofu RM20. A little on the expensive side but that’s because there were only two of us. If we had more people like our second visit, it would be a very cheap and fulfilling meal. As for my third visit, I would rate it as a slight disappointment. However, the restaurant is worth trying.
