steamed french mussels wif white wines, herbs and a dash of fresh cream
french mussels are tiny, such babies and its meat was so delicate!!!!!
so u must be thinking....all the cream....very very scary right?
but trust me....fresh French cream...u can't get anywhere else...
it has this slight sweetness from the glucose of the cow's milk
can't describe its note...u must taste it urself :P

Langoustine!!!!!! we lurve our seafood platter...
and must have at least sea urchin....different varieties and grades of oysters
also arrays of shellfish :))))))))))))
seafood platters are served on a bed of ice
with lemon wedges, shallot vinegar sauce, some bread and butter
usually we order according to our liking instead of taking the set
most tables were busy gorging down ONE BIG PLATTER of seafood for 2 person
which we think can feed 10 ppl!!!! :P

baked fresh turbot fish for Mr. JS
the waiter wanted to dissect everything for him...so it's easier to consume
and we being CHINESE....must have head and tail :P
well all waiters were astonished everytime they served fish to us
bcoz it is a norm to present the whole fish/chicken/watever before bringing it away to be prepared into consumption portion
hmmmm guess they didn't know the best-est part are the FINS and TAIL and HEAD!!!!
Turbot fish is very very prized bcoz of its delicate meat
they are caught in France, Norway, Spain.......
