My bf and I dropped by Shen Ji Seafood Garden tonight, with the main purpose of trying out the XO Crab Bee Hoon there. However, the crab looked large in the picture of their menu. Hence, we opted for their XO Fish Slices Bee Hoon ($8)instead.

The place was quite crowded, yet..not as crowded as I thought it'll be especially on a Friday night.. *hmm*

Anyway, the food came shortly and we began our little feast. :)

The XO Fish Slices Bee Hoon was actually not bad. You could taste the XO, and it really gave the soup much more taste. The fish slices were fresh, and together with their chilli (mixed with lime juice), ah..it was good. :)

However, I only said that the dish was not bad, because after the 2nd bowl followed by the 3rd bowl, both of us felt that it didn't taste as good as the 1st. I don't know if I should blame it on the fan blasting from behind us, the fact that our hunger pangs have more or less died down after the first bowl, or the dish itself.

Anyhow, our final grading of the dish was that it was o-kay. Nothing much to rave about..and..it's taste is just very slightly above average I guess. This goes for the other side dishes we had as well.

Hmm.. But considering the fact that the bill came up to $20 for both of us, seemed quite reasonable. If only the food was a a fraction (or much more) better than average~
