Unique Seafood @ Section 13, PJ

Finally, I got around to blog about a very backdated event that happened in October. It was a joint birthday celebration for my grandma, dad & my belated birthday. It was a treat from my uncle who's back on a short trip for business.

Unique Seafood is the restaurant that we'll go to on special occasions. This PJ branch is the one we would normally visit, although there are two other branches in Cheras & Setapak (Dunno why, haha probably because of the fond memories we had here) .

Before I bore you, here are the picture-worthy dishes that we had that night.

Can you recognize what this is?


Sideways for clearer view.


In case you still can't figure it out,that is the Australian Lobster , one of my fav. dish :) There are 3 ways to eat this precious lobster (I called it precious because we only ordered it on special occasions).

Normally, the young folks would go for the sashimi style because that way,we could taste the freshness of the meat. For those who dislike sashimi style, they could eat it ala-hotpot by immersing the meat into the super-flavorful herbal soup (which all of us enjoyed too).

The last method is to stir-fry the lobster with glass noodle. Without a doubt, it was the crowd's favourite too. Scrumptious!

Up close shot. I know, they looked like crab rite?

The next picture-worthy dish is the steamed patin with soy sauce.

The meat is flavorful and succulent. Best eaten with bowls and bowls of plain rice.

Another picture-worthy dish is also my favourite, i.e. Prawns!!!

They are no ordinary prawns because they have uber-long pleopods (legs). We had it steamed with lotsa lotsa garlic to retain the freshness. It was pretty good especially when you eat the carapace(head) .

Other dishes that we ordered were Shueng Tong Lala , Fried Rice (one of their signature dish) and Fried Kangkung with Belacan. No pictures of them cuz they looked pretty ordinary.

All in all, we had a great meal there ( as we always do) .

Also, I got a nice present from my Aunt Kim & my cousins.


Not bad,eh?
