Equatorial Restaurant

Bites Tale : My gastric came back... doc said i should not take spicy food and cold things for the moment.. i think the cause of the gastric is the wasabi at Umai.. that's the best wasabi i could find in all the Japanese restaurant i've been to... damn syok but my stomach can't stand.. sigh...

This is the 3rd time i've been to Equatorial Restaurant.

The 1st time was too salty... The 2nd was good..

And this time was so-so only... there's nothing to shout about except for the scallops and prawns... i was "longing" for their famous pork knuckle and the spinach with century egg that whole day.. but both disappoint me.. they were tasteless... my youngest sis just came back from KL that morning, and she was craving for bean curd... the captain introduced their specialty bean curd.. from the pic in the menu, it look some sort like the ones in Hong Kong Restaurant at Lintas Square.. my sis eyes sparkled when the bean curd came, took a bite and the sparks are gone.

Their specialty is Crocodile meat though... but none of us in my family dare to give it a try... so if you are the daring ones... go try... i have friends who said it's very nice...

This is what we ordered :-

Pic : Fish maw soup

Pic : Scallop

Pic : Deep fried pork knuckle

Pic : Specialty Bean Curd

Pic : Spinach + century eggs

Pic : Sweet & sour chicken with marinated jellyfish

Pic : 2-style prawns... thumbs up for this... the prawns are very big and fresh!

Hmm... i don't know what to say about this restaurant... it will be unfair for me to say they are not good and they don't worth the $$$ you spend there because some of the dishes they served are really good... may be it would be fairer for me to say... they deserved another try?
