Lemon parsley tiger prawn from East 8. Whilst the prawns were undeniably happily pregnant, the matrimony between oily butter and citrusy tang may cause the conservatives to clutch their pearls, whilst the price tag ($19) would likely inspire a goldfish eye effect. 3.5/5 East 8 10 Coleman Street #01-21/22, Grand…
Alla Marinara from Pasta Fresca – prawns, squid and mussels sautéed in white wine and garlic and with added chilli padi. The springy pasta extends a warm, hearty welcome with its unbridled seafood generosity, and the requested spiciness is capable of being pleasurably relentless in its back end viciousness. 4/5…
Traditional salt baked crab from Joyden Treasures. Nude by Nature, Sephora or similar brands should definitely engage this crab for a “quote the code ‘SaltBakedMeGivesYouJoy’ for 15% off” social media outreach deal as it is positively glowing in its au naturel charms, being gloriously sweet and supple without a visible…

Open Farm Community…
Mediterranean Red Prawn from Catalunya Singapore, prepared ajillo-style. The oceanic scent of the Mediterranean sea wafts from before the platter arrives, and the positively magical Carabinero prawns are worth every penny – magnificently sweet prawn flesh, lightly enhanced with garlic and oil, with an unbelievable head succulence that demands to…
Avocado roll from Catalunya – fresh shredded lobster wrapped in strips of avocado. The avocado dutifully serves as vest to the oceanically fresh, crunchy and voluptuously Sofia Vergara-esque lobster chunks, while elsewhere the baby fish eggs add to oral texturality (”口感”) without unnecessarily upping the salt quotient. 4/5 This was…
Lemon Steam Squid from Haha Thai. A love gift for those who itch for flirtation with oral danger – a highly citric flare blitz assaults your senses, the soup marvellously imbued with the essence of squid so thoroughly leached that the squid lies lifelessly shagged from all the flavour extraction.…
