Black Ice Party @ Brel

Black Ice was the theme of the GUSS X'mas dinner.
Thankfully no one slipped on their way to dinner

I had a nice pot of mussels and drowned myself with a bottle with Timmermans. Other highlights of the night were the duck salad and the chocolate brownie.

The waffle was... unfortunately upsetting..



Do Check out their Xmas menu. It looks good too.


P.s.. Been busy.. so posts have been shorter

Mussel Inn, Glasgow

After almost 14 days of traveling, I can gladly say we've finally reached Glasgow. There's so many places to bring my parents and sister to that I am not sure where would be the best. Again, I try and take into consideration taste preference and budget. My family's quite big on seafood but not in the typical Singaporean way... (story for another day)..

Mussel in sprang to my mind in terms of taste and cost wise. They actually do quite good lunch deals. I am glad to say that the food was much more pleasant this time compared to my previous visit.

Nice sunny summer weather lighting up the interior.

Those of you who has been here will know the bread is absolutely amazing. The crust is very crunchy and super fragrant whilst the interior is so soft and "fluffyyy I am going to die......."

Mum decided to have a small meal...and ordered the queen size scallops... Literally small.. like 20 pence small hahaha..If you wanna have bigger ones, you'll have to fork out 3 pounds per piece for the giant king size scallops

Seafood pasta.. Uberr yummy. and damm worthwhile for the portion. think it was about 16 quid but really damm shuang.. its a nice main to share.

Finally the main star... Well... enough said... its good and if u like the ones in Singapore. You'll love the ones here.

Bring your friends here!!!..

Dinner with PYi at Mussel Inn

Met up with PYi at Mussel Inn for a catch up. Good to know that things have gone well for her. I haven't been to mussel inn in ages and sad to say the standard as dropped.. The huge mussels have shrunked and the flavour just wasn't as intense as it used to be. We order 2 1kg pots: garlic sauce and morroccan spice. The morrocan pot was rather flavourful with all the spices thrown in but lacked the seafood taste that hits you like an umami storm.

The garlic pot on the other hand was a dissapointment and I expected much more from a seafood restaurant. What I had could have been found elsewhere in a non-seafood restaurant. At least there was lots of free crusty bread to mop up the sauce.

Thanks to 5pm.co.uk, we managed to get a 25% discount off the bill which works out to about 8 quid each. It was more worth while for me cos I ate almost 3/4 of the whole lot of mussels.

Rightey, got to rush off to the toilet now lol
