Gills N Shells: New All in One Seafood Basket for the Seafood-Lovers

Gills N Shells...

It’s been two years since I last visited Gills N Shells and I must say, they have definitely improved over the years. Tucked at the back of Hotel Boss, Gills N Shells is a laid-back and modern restaurant bistro that offers Western-Asian seafood fusion dishes at a very reasonable price. Their attractive happy hours promotion also makes them a popular spot for office personnel to hangout after work.

Gills N Shells has recently revamped their menu, with the addition of several new bar bites as well as the ‘All in One Seafood Basket’ for the seafood-lovers. Their signature dishes (also my favourites) such as the Grilled Tiger Prawn with Salted Egg Pasta, Hae Bee Hiam Pasta with Soft Shell Crab and Spicy Buffalo Frog Legs are still available in their new menu. So, celebrate your TGIF with your friends at Gills N Shells this coming Friday!

In frame, the new ‘All in One Seafood Basket’ and Gills N Shells’ signature dishes – Hae Bee Hiam Pasta with Soft Shell Crab & Maine Lobster Aglio Olio. Of course, you need drinks to go with your food. I would highly recommend their Beergarita which I always order everytime I visit Gills N Shells. Away from the hustle and bustle, you can spend some private & quality time with your friends!

Beergarita

This is what you will need on a hot scorching evening! This drink is super refreshing!

Salmon Skin

This is one good bar snack! When you are in a bar, you would definitely want to munch on something when you drink. The new Salmon Skin from Gills N Shells is so addictive that once you start, you can’t stop! It was flavourful and very crispy!

Crab Nachos Chips

The combination was flavourful! The shredded crab meat was sweet and juicy, and it paired well with the spicy jalapeño which hits right at the end. The chips were also very crunchy. Ps, soggy chips are horrible! This definitely calls for an iced cold beer!

With such serenity and view, you can definitely unwind yourself after a long day of work! By the way, I really liked their Long Island Tea!

Grilled Tiger Prawn with Salted Egg Pasta

This is one of my favourite dish at Gills N Shells two years ago and I finally got to try it again. Like what I have said earlier, they have really improved! The salted egg flavour was very aromatic and it was very strong. You can taste the salted egg flavour in each strand of pasta. Very flavourful! Highly recommended!

Hae Bee Hiam Pasta with Soft Shell Crab

You will either like or dislike this dish! Not many people can take the smell and taste of Hae Bee Hiam. The Hae Bee Hiam flavour was really strong and rich. The soft shell crab was super crispy, even though we left it on the table for quite a while!

Maine Lobster Aglio Olio

If you compared this pasta to the ones that I have mentioned, this pasta will be at the losing end. I thought the flavour can be a little stronger and the lobsters were really tough.

All in One Seafood Basket

For only $88, you get to have a basket of Boston Lobster, Snow Crab Leg, Prawns, Salmon Fillet, Oysters, Mussels, White Clams and Scallops. My favourite has to be the Mussels, Salmon Fillet, Prawns and Scallops. The mussels were really soft and juicy. The salmon fillet wasn’t fishy and it was very soft. The prawns were very fresh and the scallops were huge. This seafood basket is very value-for-money. Great for sharing within 3-4 people!

So what are you waiting for? Head to Gills N Shells for some good food and drinks this Friday!
