Earlier post, Mamarazzi mentioned something about spotting a dish that she wish to try out at this restaurant.
Well, a few days later we did go to this restaurant again.
The story was like this...we went to Pasar Malam. Mamarazzi saw a Fish Monger and she wanted to buy " Red Dates Fish"(Direct translation from Cantonese).
Hence Mamarazzi asked "How much is Red Dates Fish?". Fish Monger replied "RM18". Okay...that was fine.
Mamarazzi then proceed to choose the fish that she wanted. Then The Fish Monger slapped the fish onto the weighing scales and said RM18. And he proceed to clean the fish.
Mamarazzi was blurred for a moment there..."what?? that tiny fish RM18?? "...Haiz rupa-rupa when Mamarazzi asked the price, she assumed it's per kilogramme but when the Fish Monger replied it was per kati. Aiyoyo.....1 kati is 600gm. Laaa....still got people use KATI punya meh....
That was how she become "Water Fish". Next time must ask properly whether it's KATI or KILOGRAMME.
After that it started to rain very hard. Mamarazzi no mood to cook. Hence decided to go makan at Restaurant SF Seafood.
Brought along the fish and asked them to steam it for us. Papa laugh. Bikin malu aje la bring the tiny fish to the shop.
Well, at least we get to eat it "fresh" and Steamed correctly at the restaurant.
Ordered some Sweet Potatoes Leaves.
This is the DISH that Mamarazzi wanted to try out. "Choong Zhai ChI"(Mini Pot Sharkfin - RM8-80).
Taste very good. Generous amount of Crab Meat. As for the "sharkfin" ...hmm...not sure about that coz Papa was wondering why the the end of some of the sharkfin is not sharp. Worth the try.
due to the extinction of sharks, the bear say no to shark fins...uhuhuhu... =p
ReplyDeletegood morning mamarazzi.. how are you..?
ReplyDeletebtw the shark fin soup looks tempting :D
Frankly, I don't know 1 kati equivalent to ?... ^_^ Eh, Smallkucing becomes botak head, so cute :-)

Me no friend you if eat shark fin ar... fake one ok..
ReplyDeleteHhaahha...olden folks prefer to use Kati one.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you really like this restaurant :) Fishes are expensive nowadays. I bought 3 garoupa ( small ones - from Pantai Remis ) costs me RM28 :( No nid to feel malu...I do that sometimes ..just WB and myself :)
ReplyDeleteThought you went to Sg Buloh to buy waterfish but ended up, the hunter being the hunted. How come they still use kati one? Quite misleading leh.
ReplyDeleteVery small meh? Looks quite ok from the picture.. :P How much does the restaurant charge for steaming outside fish ah?
ReplyDeleteSAVE THE SHARKS!!! Sabah already banned... I hope Sarawak will follow suit soonest. Tasteless - depends on soup - with or without the fins, the same also.
ReplyDeletei love the shark fins soup.
ReplyDeleteYou actually took the fish to the shop and they cooked for all of you??? Wow, thats great of the shop and I am not sure how many will do that.
ReplyDeleteI sure like how the fish was prepared, steaming all the more is so healthy and looks really nice.
The all look very fresh. I'm a big fan of green vegetables. But I'm not so sure if i can be able to eat the Mini Pot Sharkfin.
ReplyDeleteI can't differentiate real and fake sharkfin also :s
ReplyDeleteHoong choe fish, is it? yeah.. very expensive i think.. normally a big one will cost around 10-15rm .. big one.. i mean.. hahaha.. never mind.. water fish once awhile we all are!
ReplyDeleteShark Fin soup is nice to eat, but in fact it was tasteless with only itself. Once, reader forwarded to me a recipe to substitute shark fin soup to non shark fin ala chicken soup. :)
ReplyDeleteSay no to shark fin! :)
