No Sign Board Seafood

Had some friends visiting Singapore and she wanted to have Chill Crab before heading back to Houston.  I decided to take her to No Signboard at East Coast.

When we got there, it was drizzling so we didn't manage to sit by the outdoor area.  We ordered the food and it didn't take long for the first dish to be served.

The Crispy Squid ($18) was good... crispy and slightly sweet. 


Oyster Sauce Kailan ($12) was crisp and as expected.  Seafood Fried Rice ($15) was well done.  I must say chinese restaurants really know how to make good fried rice.

I like the Mango Chicken ($20).  It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and it was very tasty.  The batter was not oily and well seasoned.

The Salad You Tiao ($15) was average... I tasted better ones.  It was not awful but it could've have been more crispy.

The Chilli Crab ($153) was nice though the sauce is a little bit "curryish" in taste.  I would prefer it to be more "chilli-tomatoey" tasting.  The crab was flashy will ample roe.  Nevertheless, we polished up the plate.  The mantou that we ordered could be a little more crispy.  I like it when it's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

The staff was helpful and it's great when the waitress understands what you are saying.  After adding the chinese tea, towels, peanuts, service tax, GST, it came to $322.65.  I know they always do this but I still do think it's cheeky when they charge for peanuts that you didn't ask for...
