It's basically just sort of "crumbles" when you eat... not the normal fresh seared tuna that you get anywhere. Dixie Fried Chicken - Deep fried boneless Chicken - it was OK but nothing fantastic House Made French Fries - Reminded me of In N Out Fries :)  Dixie Fried Chicken  Crispy Lobster

I've tried so much better food in other Thai places but good thing is that this is just near the 3rd Street Promenade and not very crowded. Shrimps and Scallops - OK! Fresh Spring Roll - realy wanted that to go with peanut sauce :( Chicken Cashew Nuts - didn't really like it. It was kinda plain Satay was OK. Calamari - not good, skip it. Coconut Juice! Yeahh!! Fish Filet! Yellow Curry Chicken Fried Rice

This was the combination platter that we ordered Mashed potato with Fish Flakes Tasted like Potato Gratin with Fish flakes.. I Like it. Most of these can only be eaten during the Winter festival Soured Whale - errr.. doesn't taste anything but like jelly with vinegar Soured Ram's testicles - not sure how to describe this but something like very sour century egg yolk Fermented Shark meat - quite interesting and tasty.  Very hard to cut kind of fish meat. Herring - the usual and you can find this in other Scandinavian countries. Liver and Blood Budding Sheep Jelly - quite interesting and tasty  See the video below.. Icelandic Meat Soup Taste like diluted Meat Goulash (prolly can skip th
