Mussel Guys @ Vivocity

Got lotsa food pic to blog about these days. Coz Josh and I have been "pigging" a lot these days. I think this month i had the most number of buffets, restaurants and interesting food...

One of them is the Mussel Guys at Vivocity.

I remembered I actually wanna try their restaurant before, but the number of people inside really didnt help pull me in. Though the service was pretty good. They have very patient staffs outside trying to lure customers in by introducing the promotions and food they serve.

I am not sure for what ever reasons, i actually wanna give it a try. So *Poof* in we go. For a weekday at dinner time, with only three tables occupied was not very encouraging. But they do have this 1-for-1 mussels dishes which makes it quite tempting.

Cut the talking, and we have the soup for starters since i order the set meal which is pretty worth it i feel. So the pictures to know why i say so.


The soup is cream of mushroom, nothing really fantastic here but it was no lousy soup.


First mussel that came in was this delicious half-shell mussels in creamy sauce.
The sauce was great (since i am always a fan of cream base) and the mussels were fresh! I will say this is a must try for them, but the others looks equality nice.


Since we had the cream base mussel, we tot we should order the fried ones to balance the wet-dry issues. The mussels were fried with their shells together. So u kinda need to cut them between the shell n meat. But its not a hassle if u know the correct way to cut them. :) Anyway, they were as fresh as the cream base one and i felt its a good balance. Though i say people taking the steam ones, and they look jus as good. Definately coming back to try the others...


Josh got eh squik ink pasta with huge prawns. This dish was cooked with a slightly spicy manner which i felt a simple tomota pasta would be good enough, zoa the squik ink pasta should be the main taste ingredient instead of the spices...


The most worth while dish i should say is this chicken and lamb mix grill. The lamp were nicely grilled though the inside were pinkish n slightly bloody, the tenderness is actually fine! THe chicken was also quite tasty and for that price, with coffee, soup n main, i am sure itsa steal!

In total, the damage was around 60bucks. Really worth it when u love mussels.
