Hot Seafood Platter @ The Little Fish Shop [Nex Mall]

In case you are wondering, the Little Fish Shop at Nex Mall doesn't sell small fishes like ikan bilis and is better known for offering live Boston lobsters at a promotional pricing of S$30 each every Monday! 

Thankfully for my sister, who was treating us a very late lunch, we were not hungry and preferred to share a hot seafood platter that came with a wide array of seafood that ranged from battered fish to crispy soft shell crab! 

Diners familiar with the seafood platter from Fish N Co and the Manhattan Fish Market might not take too kindly to this platter from the Little Fish Shop; the layout lacked the overflowing generous element and gave the impression that it might only satisfy the appetite of one person. 

Let's start with the not so good; the battered fish could do with a crispier batter, soft shell crab left too much oil on my lips even though they do require some moisturizing and personally, i have never liked prawns grilled with garlic as the pungent aroma can overcome the natural fresh sweetness of prawns.

The good; the lightly grilled calamaris were lip smacking delicious, leaving a delectable BBQ fragrance that screamed for more and that bowl of mussels and clams in buttery garlic broth was wonderfully done without that repulsive fishy taste! 

There's only one thing lacking in the platter.
Butter rice dotted with raisins!!!
