The other day Hubby was craving to have seafood for dinner and initially he thought of going to Tamu Selera for that. But somehow, he thought that I was slightly overdressed and thought that it would be much better if we could go to better place for seafood.

However, it still took us awhile before making final decision of going to Mei Wee for seafood as there aren't much choices of restaurants when it come to seafood. The reason why we ended up choosing Mei Wee out of all restaurants which we could thought of was because we have not tried it yet and we thought it might be cheaper.

For your information Mei Wee Seafood Restaurant is located at Aroi Food court, Yayasan Shopping Complex. It occupied few stalls in the food court so it is quite impossible to miss it. There were many choices of seafood available and mostly still alive so freshness is guaranteed. However if you prefer frozen seafood, they also have it too.

There were just so many types of seafood available which made us scratching our heads thinking what should we order. Then the waitress informed us that the restaurant was having a promotion on their fish dish which cost only $15 and we could choose the type of cooking method that we prefer. So we choosed something like "Thai Style Steam Fish" and other dishes were, Minced Chicken with Beancurds, Soft-shelled Crab with salted egg and Oyster Omelet.

Okie, here is the review. We were quite disappointed with our food. We ordered only 1 soft-shelled crab and it was really just plainly average. We have tried few local restaurants that serve soft-shelled crab and this was the worse one I must say. As for the Thai style Steam Fish, I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be served warm-cold or what, it was not serve hot. I thought it was supposed to be a hot dish out but it seemed like it was already prepared, placed there for quite some time before being served on our table. It tasted kinda bad as the dish had already turned cold and what's more it's a fish dish. Nothing much to say on the Oyster Omelet and Minced Chicken with Bancurds; still acceptable.

The total bill was between $40-45 and we received a free bracelet, cool~ But I don't think I would wanna make a return visit within short period.
