Sat again and we decided to explore a new place to eat in the heartlands today!
Cam whoring in the carpark while waiting for b to pick me up! :D
We decided to visit Crab Shack, back in business after being absent for a few years! Crab Shack went on a 3 year hiatus, and is actually owned by some of b's basketball buddies who decided to give it another go after much feedback asking them to reopen!
 |
| Located at Block 107 Ang Mo Kio Ave 4, whereby carpark was plentiful compared to in the past when they were located in Upper Thomson. |
It's
actually in a coffeeshop but from the menu and set up you'd be forgiven
for thinking that you were in a proper restaurant! A wide variety of
options was upon us and we took a good while before we made up our minds
on what to have.
Prices are affordable, and you can have a good proper meal without the restaurant prices, GST, and service charge!
Despite
being named as crab shack, this place sells more than just
crabs-there's Fish & Chips, Chicken Baked Rice, Chicken
Spaghetti besides the crab mains, while several mouth-watering starters
for those non-crab lovers as well!
There's b trying to attract the busy chefs to take our orders cus we were famished!
They appeared on TV before in a food programme hosted by Michelle Chia and Adrian Pang when they are located in Upper Thomson!
Our cute, customized queue number that gave us some interesting tips about crabs!
Becoming a fan of Crab Shack Facebook page (will tell you why later!)
We went with Chicken Baked Rice, Fish & Chips, and Fried Shitake because the first two were their recommended items.
And I've always loved fried Shitake which I usually order when I go to Billy Bombers!
2 packs of Ribena which cost us $1.80 each! Things are really expensive nowadays!
Waiting patiently for the yummy food to arrive even though my tummy was growling at this point hence the sulky face hehe! B took this terrible picture!
CHICKEN BAKED RICE!
This
things that looked like you tiao are actually the chicken which is
fried before a layer of cheese is added on top, and interestingly pork
floss was added as a topping!
This fusion dish actually impressed me because the cheese was not too creamy, and the chicken was succulent and was extremely crispy!
B's Fish and Chips!
I
think they used dory fish but the difference between this and most of
the Fish and Chips outside is that the batter is EXTREMELY crispy and
seriously as close as Fish and Co. standard! It's quite a big piece too
so pretty value for money at $6.50!
Ready to tuck in!
Already started without me!
Check out how fresh the meat is!
A
nice thing as well was that it didn't have the typical "mud" taste that
you might encounter when eating freshwater fishes. If I'm not mistaken
dory fish is actually saltwater fish hence the lack of smell!
The Fried Shitake came right after we were battling our respective mains!
Batter was crisp, and the mushrooms juicy. Yum!
Hello Shitake!
And the dessert!!!
This chocolate fudge brownie was highly satisfying for 2 reasons.
Firstly,
it's home made-really home made! Unlike most brownies which claim to be
home made but actually bought from some place, we could see the chefs
baking the brownie and smell the freshly baked brownie in the air! It
took a while but it was well worth it! This might be the fudgiest, most
chocolaty, and yummiest brownie I've eaten! And best of all, it's not
dry. You can see how moist the brownie is!
The 2nd reason for the satisfaction was-it was FREE! Haha!
Basically
Crab Shack is running a promotion now-simply show them you are a fan of
their facebook page and you can get this dessert free!! Yay!
CRAB SHACK
Block 107 Ang Mo Kio Ave 4
After the hearty lunch, we caught a movie and headed to Vivo and then Plaza Singapura to get gifts for Fathers' Day! (:
I hope you had a good Fathers' Day celebration as well!
I
bought a pair of Air Supply concert tickets in May for Daddy's
Fathers' Day gift but he forgotten that it was for Fathers' Day! ): So I
got a pair of Crocs and some Sugar-free chocolates, sweets and waffles
for him! Teehee!

Who we have today?
The site that religiously launches every 2 weeks, no other than Fabfad!
This collection is a small yet a blast cause of the colors brought in this time round!
I love to play with colors and I believe most of us now do, and they heard our cries for more colors that ZARA and TOPSHOP are having now! My picks this launch gotta be the casuals like the tiered aquamarine top, black top with a heart cut out back! :D

Another feature we have today is March Shop!
Back from their sourcing trip and here's what came hot from the oven! (:
I reckon that this collection is very much different from the rest cause the material is really even more fab! And the 2 pieces I rave about at the shoot has the best fab material around!
They are the bodycons of this launch; the maroon toga dress and the purple cut out dress!
The other ones that i really like got to be the casuals like the maxi!

You may also realise that I aint using Formspring anymore! (:
Please leave your queries on the individual posts and I reckon it's better one way or another cause it's beneficial for future readers as well. Formspring has too many repeated queries cause people end up being rather lazy to click the next page. Well, the initial reason why i had Formspring was so there's a page where readers can read those FAQ!
I did have my fun for the past months but not much anymore so i decided to stop. Boyfriend said why do something which i don't enjoy anymore. Which I feel is really true. I love blogging so here I am! With that said, i've replied all comments! Go look for yours! :D

i really salute you to be that patient for so long..
I dont think most of them are your readers.. coz they were asking those questions that is so obvious shown in your blog..
Your pictures always never load, can't see them :(
Dory fish is actually catfish and it is not a salt water fish.
If you google dory fish, you will find an article that mentions that they are actually catfish reared in the polluted Mekong river in Vietnam, hence the cheap prices we get in SG restaurants. >.<
it is not recommended to eat too much sugar free chocoltaes. Even though sugar-free chocolates may seem ideal for a diabetic because they do not contain sugar, they also have some serious drawbacks to consider. According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), sugar-free sweets like chocolates usually have sugar alcohols added to make them taste sweet. Sugar alcohols are low-calorie sweeteners, such as sorbitol and maltitol. The ADA says that sugar alcohols can cause gastrointestinal problems, such as cramping and diarrhea. They are also confusing for diabetics because although sugar-free chocolates do not contain sugar, they can still be high in calories and fat. The ADA explains that diabetics sometimes feel foods with sugar alcohols can be consumed as much as they want, when--in reality--they should be limited.

Of course it's vital to take everything and anything in moderation! (; We understand that! Thanks!
Hi! where do you get those colourful belts for shoots? so pretty! (:
Hi! You can try looking at Novena Square 2, level 3 I think for the chocolates. It's a shop selling tidbits for diabetic people so I think they do sell sugar-free chocolates. Hope it does sell (:
Hi, do u know where has Crab Shack moved to? I couldn't find it's new location from google.
