Dinner at New Gaya Seafood Restaurant (GSR)

Shells and Poached Prawns


Veges


Wet Buttered Crabs

When I arrived home from work today, there was no food on the dinner table. Mum said we were going out for dinner and I had to decide where to go.

I tried calling GSR while I was resting and all I got was engaged tone. I assumed their phone must be out of order. Then all I can think of are the restaurants which we can go to for dinner.

When mum, Jeff and I were about to go out, I told mum I could not reach GSR by phone. Mum then suggested to me to call Supertanker Restaurant. I had to call the recreation club beside GSR twice before someone answered the phone. I asked the person whether GSR is open for business and was glad when she said yes.

When we arrived at GSR, the carpark was almost full. The recreation club beside it is undergoing renovation. But still someone could answer the phone.

Although the carpark was almost full, there are still a lot of tables available. We had to wait ten minutes before one of the four captains came to take our order. My favourite captain, Peter is on leave.

We ordered 300g poached prawns, half a kg of shells, two wet buttered mud crabs, veges and two bowls of rice. Jeff did not want to eat any rice. After taking our order, I asked the captain whether their phone is out of order and he said yes, just went out of order.

The shells came first followed by the prawns. We finished the shells before the veges came. Lastly, the crabs were taking a long time to make it grand entrance.

As usual everything tasted great and the chef had improved a lot in the way he cooked the crabs. Tasted better now than when we first started order this way of cooking.

When we were about to go home, Peter (one of the captains) appeared eventhough it was his day off. He seemed to be busy so I did not want to disturb him.

Jeff paid the bill of RM61.xx. Mum said next time we go to GSR, she wants to eat abalone and oysters. So I said we do not have to wait for next time. We can go again next week since Jeff won’t be leaving until next Wednesday.
