King prawns were slightly dry due to the strong Grilling but that's about the only complaint i have. It's super smoky from the Grilling, with many parts of the shell blackened. Their secret sauce was incredibly good as well, mainly sweet with a slight heat as well. Loved it so much i went to smear the prawn with the sauce on the Banana leaf, and thats sth i hardly do as i prefer to enjoy the natural flavours of ingredients. If thats not convincing enough, quite a few tables had this despite the price so you know it's good.

Was blown away by this starter -- basically grilled king prawns marinated in home made sauce. The prawns were really sweet and fresh with nice smoky flavour. What made my eyes almost popped out was the spicy zesty marination, that was immersed with the prawn oil during grilling process. It gave me a great kick as an appetite booster. Small plate with big flavours!
