		<description>hey.... me and my friends are your fans.., went there last night, fankly speaking, we were quite disappointed after having our dinner there, i think if the restaurant couldn't maintain their foods quality consistently, it is not worth to recommend it, right?

1. salted egg yolk crabs = for those fans of salted egg yolk crabs, you would be disappointed, that was too less salted egg yolk but too much sugar added.
2. calrlsberg prawns = tasteless, couldnt tell what was that tasted like.
3. Fried lala = not fresh, no wok hei
4. curry fish head = taste so so
5. fried kai lan = no wok hei, tasteless
6. deep fried sotong = too much batter coated, tasteless

services = poor (waitresses were OK, but the captain who took order ruined our night - we noticed there were 2 captains there, the one who served us was the elder one)

Price = a bit over charged

conclusion = no more second try</description>

		<description>gee... seem like most of your recommendation was not that good. 
not trying to be rude, but are you being paid for blogging?

&lt;strong&gt;vk: No i am not paid for blogging. Most of the people who complained are about the service. For me, I didn't encounter such bad services as they said. Even the food we had was not as expensive.

Another thing is, I wonder if the people who complained about the food and service actually COMPLAINED to the restaurant. Because if you didn't, then you did not utilize your right as a consumer. I don't know if it helps by complaining in my blog for you, but it certainly does not help for me. I have been to this restaurant twice and both times we left as happy customers. If you did read the other comments, some were quite satisfied.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>I totally agreed with disappointed Man. My family had our dinner for my mom's birthday last 2 weeks. The services were RUDE and BAD, we ordered slated egg crab (my favorite food) which the captain claim this is one of their famous dish, but you know... when they served the the crabs, OMG, they topped it with a huge bunch normal chicken egg floss, it tasted really bad, I could say it was the WORST salted egg crab. After the meal, we decised to order some light snack as my brother brought a bottle of wine, we planned to chit chat and enjoy our wine and some snacks, so we called the captain and ordered a small size of fried sotong, the captain was really rude, not even showed a smiling face and asked " fried sotong for how many people", we said " we are quite full, just want some snacks to eat with the wine, so, just make the small size for us", she then asked again " for how many people"? I felt a bit upset, and asked " how much for the small size one?" , she said " RM8", then I said " OK, then just give us RM8 fried sotong"

After they served the fried sotong (which also not nice), an Indo. waitress then came with the bill to us, I really could not tahan already, and said " we haven't finished our meal yet, you ask us to pay now mean you want us to leave now'? Thewaitress just replied oh no, I dont know, they just told me to bring the bill here... :-/

I would never go back to this place!!!</description>

		<description>After looking at the pictures showed, I decided to pay a visit to this Mantis Shrimp Village Restaurant a few weeks ago. Frankly to say that I am very disappointed with this restaurant. 

Firstly, the restaurant service. The person who served us is the captain of the restaurant. It was our first visit to this restaurnt. I would like the captain to introduce some famous dishes of the restaurant. She did but in a very rude manner. She was looking down on us. (Maybe because we are driving a non-branded car and only put on casual wear) She was not willing to introduce us about the dishes. She asked us just order whatever we want to eat. When we ask how is the taste of the dish, eg sweet, sour or spicy. Again, she answered us in a rude way. Some more, the way she serve us make us feel that she is forced to serve us. This makes us not comfortable to have food there.

Secondly, the food. We ordered all of the dishes to come in medium size. Who knows, all of the dishes (seafood) come in SMALL size!! But surprisingly, the fried mee come in LARGE size!! We ordered black pepper crabs, we were eating baby crabs with only pepper. There is no other taste. For those seafood lovers, I am sure that you understand this, BABY CRAB = NOTHING TO EAT / TASTE. The most famous seafood of the restaurant - mantis, it is tasteless!! We ordered medium size mantis but we were eating small size mantis. For other seafood, they are acceptable (from the aspect of taste) but not fresh.

Thirdly, about the price. Dear all going-to-visit consumers, this is a kindly remind to you. Please make sure you have credit cards. If you are paying cash, please make sure you bring more. Mantis Shrimp Village Seafood charging is extremely expensive!!!! If you try to compare their price with other seafood restaurants, you will find that this restaurant is charging at medium size price (in fact, they served us with small size dishes). Furthermore, if you compare taste + service Vs price to other restaurants, it is not worth to visit at all.

Dear all customers, kindly remind you that DON'T TORTURE YOUR TONGUE AND WALLET. It is not good to your healthy.

Last but not least, thank you for reading my comment.</description>
