Fisherman's Wharf


For Celest :D


As i mentioned in the previous entry sometime ago, hb and i went to have our dinner at Fisherman's Wharf after hearing tons and tons of raves from CozyCot and also friends.

In the beginning, hb wanted to have yong tao hoo after our massages but decided to give FW a try instead upon my insistence that it would taste great. So, off we went and hb made one round just to pass the shop at the front to have a look at it. He turned and told me, it doesn't look appealing. That was his exact words. But i told him, looks can be deceiving plus with all the raves, how wrong could it go?

Alas, he gave in but it was quite a disappointment and i was totally embarrassed, so to speak. The fish that hb initially chosed was cod fish $14.50 but i kpo and told him, why
not get the $11.50 one instead. It was also cod but the difference is one is near the head and the other fillet is near the tail. Unfortunately, hb agreed..

The fish texture was so rough and dry, gosh! Not even oily or creamy and definitely not cod-y! But the batter was not too bad. Fish was fresh from fryer. Served hot. But the same cant be said for the fries though. It was soggy and cold. Sigh. I really didn't know where to hide my head there and then! Lol..
*my recommendation ma*

I, on the other hand, had Danish meat balls with strawberry jam? and mashed potato. It was yucky. Totally. I thought it would be similiar to Ikea's Swedish meat balls but no. Then i realised they were from different country afterall. But the mashed potato was good though.


After our meal, hb was still feeling unsatisfied.. so we actually went for our second round of dinner at our fav yong tau hoo stall at Jalan Besar. The best you can get in town ;)


So girls, if you are going there, make sure you order the cream dory fillet (the normal fish and chips) which was raved upon or the creamiest fish you can get which i think it might be the $14.50 fillet which hb choosed at the very beginning


*yawn* Tired. Gone for shopping today and hair cut too. Will post my loot tomorrow. Stay tune.. ;)

wah.. so honoured! a post specially dedicated to me in your blog *lol* thanks, sherie! oops, sounds like you had a really unsatisfying meal there :P must heed your advice, skip the cod and meat balls... go straight for the normal fish & chips when i go try out.

Poor thing, I always have the normal fish (like what Livia rec) and chips and it was good.

Don't think you will be back there in a hurry though.

Pleasure is mine Celest ;)

Lol. The fault was mine for not asking hb to choose the normal fish but then, i know him enough to know he has this concept, expensive = best :P

Paiseh, never re-read my entry after posting. Realised a few boo boos. Heh.
