Just a stone throw away from my office is Plaza Singapura where i had my dinners more often than i had at home these days. GF went for an interview and was feeling sort of down after that. She came by my office and i thought what better than to treat her to a nice dinner to cheer her up a little.
Thought of having our dinner at Secret Reciepe ( for GF's favourite Chocolate Banana cake ) but we settled for Manhattan Fish Market. MFM, which has it's roots in Malaysia, bears an uncanny resemblance to Fish and Co . Both have seafood platter on the menu.
Having tried both, here's our take. Let's compare the Seafood Platter for 2 at these 2 places.
Fish and Co
Manhattan Fish Market
Fish and Co's version has loads of grilled prawns, mussels, squids, a piece of pan fried dory fillet , loads of chips and garlic rice.
MFM's version has significantly less prawns ( but the prawns were topped with a special mayonnaise and then flamed with a torch right before our eyes. ), but they were damn good. Still as much squids, chips, garlic rice, fried oysters ( damn fresh i tell you, and huge too ) ad a piece of fried fish fillet.
Both are nice. How about this. Let's say we have only 50 bucks left and we have to choose between these 2, we'll go for Fish and Co. At least we can have more prawns to go round . Plus Fish and Co dun burn the heads of the prawns off.
Service wise, both are just as good but we prefer Fish and Co's chippy environment a little more. Tough fight between both, try them both to taste the difference.
