Takara Grilled Seafood - Newton Food Centre

Expensive and food tastes bad.

Tasty food and good service. Seafood was all very fresh. Will definitely come & eat here again.

Felt like I got ripped off on the prawns... Ordered one for $16. It tasted pretty good but somewhat overcooked.

Grilled seafood is plenty at Newton hawker center, to be honest I have tried all but this stall deserves a michelin bib gourmand for its stingray is BBQed till “just cooked” - fresh tender flesh slathered with very tasty Sambal Chilli pulls off the soft bone of the body with slight nudge and tuck with the chopsticks. I like the flavour heighten with a squeeze of lime and a dip in chinchalok. The mussels has a gravy with beaten eggs thrown in just when it’s about cooked - warm slippery egg and sauce mix with perfectly cooked shell where you can choose to eat on its own or order some fried buns to wipe the plates clean. The cockles... fresh and tasty with belacan - I ordered them ½ cooked as YOLO, enjoy! Only stories on my ig@elnatan . No photos but will try to get some as I return so often for this grilled seafood fix.

Ordered 1. Stir fried kailan with garlic ($8) - nice 2. Grilled stingray ($12) - nice

Given the many BBQ seafood stalls here at Newton Food Centre, I feel like they ought to buck up. Honestly the food is very average. It's not bad, but it's not great either. Saving grace is that they open their stall up until quite late into the night, so when we walked in looking for late night supper options, they were one of the only few stalls left open. If there are options, this wouldn't be my choice.
