Dancing Crab @ Vivocity

ahha, tried out this new dancing crab restaurant at vivocity. had heard about this restaurant from my parents-in-law when hubb's elder bro brought them to the one at turf city. according to them, the food are served on the table (literally served on the table) and have to use hands to eat..

and true enough... they just pour the food onto the table!

actually i think u can choose to have the food to be served on the bowl also lah. i think the waiter did ask us if it's ok to pour onto the table before he poured. i do see other pple eating from the bowl. 

for the combo, there'r 3 levels of spiciness - mild, spicy, and extra spicy. we took the spicy level and.... it's really spicyyy! but surprisingly, hubb and dad were ok w the level of spiciness while mum and i were complaining why so hot. LOL

i find the food too saltish. quite expensive also. the combo is $88++ and the portion is recommended for 2pax only. so let's calculate each pax as $50. with that price, top-up a bit can go to some decent buffet dinner liao. 

and most of the side dishes are fried stuff. the fries and chicken wings were super oily.  and there's no rice on the menu! diaoo......

oh.. and the service is quite lousy. even w reservation made, we had to wait for about 15mins before we were brought to a table. then had to wait a long time before someone came to take order. and then when we told one of the waiter to help us to take picture, he said he will come back, but he never did. and.. believe it or not, they gave me the wrong bill 2x! when i opened, it was not my bill and not my credit card. and the 2nd time round, they still gave me a bill meant for another table! OMG! 

anyway, now new opening promotion, there's 15% discount. and with amex platinum card, there's 25% discount. but i dont have an amex card! grrrr. 

i dont suppose i will visit a 2nd time. tried once enough liao. 

but i must say, their reservation system is quite savvy. u can make a reservation online, then on the day of your reservation,  an automated call will be made to you and when u pick up, it's a machine talking to you and asking you to confirm your reservation. hoho. no need human being liao. steady.
