Port Village Seafood Restaurant, Port Klang

My hubby's new hobby landed us to this wonderful restaurant situated next to the sea. We were there fours earlier to try our luck at one of the many fishing ponds found in tanjung harapan. Unfortunately, time and money doesn't guarantee anything. So, without any catch , we headed to the seafood restaurant situated next to the pond. The restaurant itself was nothing much to look at except for the fact that it was built on stilts with view of the port. Eating seafood near the place where it comes from is always an exhilirating experience
The first dish that we ordered was spicy lala soup. The soup looked pretty mild but was great on taste. They were quite generous with the cili padi as well.The soup was light and very refreshing and it makes a perfect companion on a cold breezy night

Next, came our deep fried soft shell crab. We polished up the plate of crabs in no time.The crustaceans were fried in a cili padi and curry leaf batter The crabs were definitely rich and creamy and definitely not for those who are watching their weight and cholesterol count.I guess it is okay for a once in a blue moon indulgence. The cili padi and the curry leaves helped to alleviate the cloying taste of a food too rich

We also ordered a small plate of tom yam squid. However , this dish didn't quite live up to expectation. It was just like any usual run of the mill tom yam dish.

Having room for more, we then ordered our last dish of black pepper crabs. The crabs came smothered in black pepper sauce and the aroma of the dish itself was enough to make one hungry all over again. I would say i liked this dish the best. The crabs were very fresh and huge and the thick black pepper sauce complemented the sweet flesh of the crabs, without overpowering it. The taste is what i would remember for a very long time. simply crabbilicious!! By the way, i am not exactly a crab fan and i was won over
