Frenzy Mode, again.

I headed for home around 4 something Saturday morning, headed to client place at 8 something in the morning and worked for 14 hours straight after that before heading home again around 10 something. Quite champion hoh?

I thank Coke for keeping me alive and sane.

Before heading back to Singapore again, my parents treated us to lunch at Unique Fisherman after failing to agree on other choices. Mom and Dad were in total support of this restaurant while Sis and I objected as we felt it would cost a bomb and Jacklyn was in total silence.

Smart move actually considering she's not officially part of the family yet, LOLS. I'm totally gonna get skinned alive for this.

The restaurant has been around for a while but I have yet dined there mainly due to hearing lots of comments about the food being slightly more expensive.

Anyway, upon going through the menu, Dad went into his frenzy ordering mode again this time, worst as Mom gave her full support O_O" you might think now that there's nothing wrong with ordering and extra dish or two, just wait till you see all the stuff that Dad ordered. Just below.

Supposed to be shark's fin soup but the colour and texture is totally different from what I had before. Additionally, they have this 'Fa Gau' thing which is supposed to be really good for health but also burns a hole in your wallet.

Beancurd with minced meat, this one is quite yummy because the salty meat toppings blended well with the blandness of the fried beancurd.

I totally forgot what dish this is. Some pork knuckles thing.

TeoChew style steamed fish. I know that's a fresh water fish but I just can't recall the name, signs of getting old.

Stir Fried Vegetables, in cantonese, this dish is called 'Sei Tai Tin Wong' which tranlates to the Four Heavenly Kings. If I'm not mistaken that is, hahaha.

Some seafood claypot thing. Why did it not cross my mind to take the receipt along at that time? ish, benci!

Chicken. Since its not herbal, most probably is 'Yip Ham Kai' - Chicken marinated with Salt then Steamed to perfection.

For only 5 person (4 and a half actually since Jacklyn eats only a little) lunch, is that a lot or what? I still remember the first time someone joined my family for dinner, she was totally shocked by the sheer amount of food presented on the dining table. Right?

The bill came to around 200++, mainly due to the two mini-bowls of shark fin Dad ordered, just to try things out, the way he put it. Hence, taking those off the list, I would say it wasn't as expensive as I've expected it to be, perhaps just somewhere between average and slightly costly.

Oh, and my stomach nearly exploded from all those food.
