Just a stone's throw away from Holiday Inn is Delima Seafood Restaurant. It's a open air eatery by the sea and most interestingly, the kitchen is across a small road from the restaurant. Throughout your meal, you'll see the waitresses running across the road taking your orders or carrying large platters of food.
JT and FT were extremely hungry. As they weren't really into seafood, I ordered a large plate of fried rice for them. A simple yet delicious dish. The glossy grains of rice were well tossed with light soya sauce, egg and chicken.
We ordered an assortment of familiar dishes - Sweet and Sour Fish, Nestum Prawns, Hot Plate Beef - but the highlight of the meal was the crabs. Fresh succulent crabs, cooked to perfection, with firm flesh bursting from the shell.
PT opted to have one crab steamed for us to savour the sweet, original flavours. It was a fantastic decision. The crab, cooked in its shell and steamed in its own juices, was a pure, unadulterated delight.
What's a seafood meal without Chilli Crab? The sauce was light and sweet at first taste and then pow! the chilli kicks in. I peeled off the meaty flesh, still briny with the taste of sea, swirled it around the eggy chilli sauce and slowly enjoyed every single bite.
