The Manhattan Fish Market

Rating:★★★
Category:Restaurants
Cuisine: Seafood
Location:Plaza Singapura, Singapore


Tis eatery is a lil spin off of "Fish & Co." cos they have similar offerings, from the table cloth to the food to the prices, tho i think The Manhattan Food Market probably has a lil bit more variety of seafood and charges slightly lesser. The eatery has a trademark dish that requires staff to literally FLAME the seafood right in the faces of those who ordered it.

I had Black Pepper Butter Fish ($15.90) and bf had Manhattan Fish & Chips ($9.90). I have no idea wat the heck is Butter Fish but it smelled really fishy but taste like chicken. Reminds me of fish usually used for Assam Pedas. Tenggiri perhaps? but it doesn't look like tenggiri *shrugs* For the fish & chips, it looked and tasted pretty much like the one in Fish & Co. tho slightly smaller in portion.




Ambience is pretty cosy and it even has an inhouse projector showin Underwater life.



Overall, it's nice n i'll most probably come back to try out their other fish dishes & seafood platter but somehow i still prefer Fish & Co. hmm...oh and we weren't given any mints after meal. Had fish breath all the way till i met up Hafiz & Firus and they offered some nice Mudpie from Coffee Club...ok, that's another story. hehe...
