Ah Yat Abalone restaurent @ Turf city.

It was the time of the month again where we go out and splurge on food. This time its seafood dinner at Ah yat @ Turf City. I heard raves about the Alaska crab and the cheese lobster.

We reached Turf city earlier so we went ahead and choose the seafood first. There's a 50% off discount for all the live seafood. Surprisingly, although turf city is starting to look more rundown and crowded, it is still pretty crowded.

We chose the Alaska crab, lobster and scallops and then aheaded to the restaurent to wait for the kitchen staff to prepare them. $4oo plus worth of seafood! The scallops cost $4.40(discounted) each! Then the alaska crab and lobsted costed ard about $200 each.

Attacking the legs! We have to use scissors to cut the meat out cause the shell is kinda softer than the normal crab we eat.

Cheese lobster!!! Mmmm!!! yummy~~~ absolutely sinful!

The body of the lobster was used for the cheese lobster dish. The legs were used to fry noodles. Quite yummy too but the ginger taste abit strong. We also ordered a plate of sambal kang kong. It was pretty good but we were pretty stuffed by then.

The final bill came out to less than $500. We expected more. Thankfully not.

We then headed for the morton's bar @ oriental mandarin. Absolutely comfortable to sit down to chat and have a class of wine. They have really frnly staffs there. They closed at 11 officially but they stayed till 1 plus jus for us. Very good service.

Spent alot that night. I guess once in a while is ok to indulge and enjoy... shld not overdo... hehe
