JUMBO seafood & coffee club @ clarke quay

*back dated entry*

been so busy recently that didnt manage to blog till like 2wks later.... so went down to try jumbo seafood for dinner after my niece bday party.... that was my first time trying jumbo seafood as i am always deter by the crowd & the price.... we wanted to make a reservation but there is nobody to pick up the call so we had to go down to the clarke quay outlet to try our luck... & luckily we managed to get a seat after like 15min wait....

chili crab with fried mantou
front: some wrap with pork floss, middle:scallop with broccoli, back: tofu with mushroom
 
steam crab with egg white & soy milk
hmmm that was the first time i tried chili crab after staying in SG for almost 20yrs.... i think the taste was ok, not as fantastic as i imagined it to be.... the steam crab actually tasted better... & surprisingly the egg white with soy milk taste nice... is like very smooth steam egg..... other dishes i would say they are just normal, can get them at any other chinese restaurant or zhicha place..... on the whole, i think jumbo seafood is only good if you really want to eat crab, other than that, i dont see the need to go there for a meal.... for the amount of food we ordered, it cost about $240.... we had a total of 5adults & 2 kids... not say SUPER expensive, but i dont think is really value for $....

after dinner, we went to coffee club at THE central for dessert... we reached the store like 8.50pm & all the lights in the cafe were off... we thought the cafe was closed but apparently the closing time was 10pm & the staff said that's the normal lighting.... but oh well.... we ordered a mudpie to share...

the cafe
 from the picture, the cafe doesnt look that dark but it actually does..... & there was nobody in the cafe other than us.... so i think is a good chill out place if you entered the store earlier...
mudpie
lychee ice
 the mudpie is considered quite big.... taste was normal.... jiejie ordered lychee ice & we like the refreshing taste.... we slacked there for like 30min before kena chased out by the staff.... slightly disappointed with the service there cause the manager was like watching her drama & ignored us then the other waiter was like bo bian but to serve us.... but at least we had a aircon place to chill before heading home =)
