Manhattan Fish Market

I brought my family to this restaurant..They never eat here before..As it's quite pricey..And they are also quite curious about this place as they always see long queues whenever or wherever they passed Manhattan Fish Market..So I ordered a few dishes for them to try..

This is their current promo..until 2/1/2011..

Crab-mas Bisque
I didn't tasted it because I'm allergic to crab..But from my family experiences, it was creamy and thick..It was tasty..I can see crab meat bits inside the soup..My dad like it so much..He slurped the soup until 'licin'..He personally likes the croutons added on top of the bisque..

Mister Claws' Sharing Platter
The waiter suggested we order this instead of my usual Manhattan Seafood Platter For 2 (RM49.90)..It has bigger portion..and crabs to replace fish nuggets..So I relented and ordered it..Coming along with the platter are 2 ice lemon teas and 2 mushroom soups per set..It also came with 2 set of scissors and a bowl of lemon water for cutting the crab and for washing your hand (I think!)..Inside this giant platter, you will find Alaskan Snow Crab Legs, Fried Oyster,Fried Calamari, Manhattan Flaming Prawns, broccoli,carrots,corns, garlic herb rice (my fav!) and chips.. 

It's like a magic show to 1st-timers..hehehe..

To be honest,I'm quite disappointed,I didn't feel the satisfaction after eating and some more, I'm not a crab eater..I think half of the platter's price went to the crab legs.It's very pricey..


Creamy Seafood Pasta
The flavor is quite bland to me..I would personally prefer more creamy sauce added onto the pasta..Maybe it's the Italian way of eating pasta..More pasta than the sauce..But still,I dig the calamari and the fish fillets they throw onto the fettuccine..

Shrimp My Olio
When the pasta came, the smell is soo good that I couldn't resist digging into this dish asap. At first forkful, it's instantly becoming my favorite..The shrimps are so tender and the flavors are evenly mixed with the spaghetti..Just the way I like my pasta to be..But after a few forkfuls, I realized 1 thing, it has bitterly-spicy aftertaste as it has chillies flakes,coriander and garlic..oh no!

Oreo Kaboom!
Creamy and not overly sweet..Crushed Oreo with vanilla ice-cream..I like!

Citrus Mint
Not sweet and is very cooling..not my favorite though..hint of lemon and mints..

Mushroom Soup
This is the best mushroom soup I ever tasted so far..Very creamy,rich and thick..Full with mushroom flavors..With generous mushroom bits..yum yum!

Mushroom Soup (RM5.90)

The price: As I said so many times throughout this entry,it's quite pricey,you have to spare around RM50++..The prices are also subject to 5% GST and 10% service charges..
The food: I personally like their Garlic Herb Rice and their grilled platters (which I didn't order during that day)..You should also try Manhattan Flaming Prawn..come with a free 'show'..hahaha..and owh..their frizzies and juices are refillable..worth it!Their mayonnaise,is superb..my mom polished it of..all of them..Will definitely come again but not for the crab platter..wink wink..
