    map to Lobsterman at PJ SS2

    Lobster is one of those sea creatures that usually means slightly different things to different people. The image of lobsters that we’re familiar with are usually the spiny lobster, which is quite a bit more prevalent in Chinese cuisine and local seafood restaurants.

    Heard good things about this place so decided to g Heard good things about this place so decided to give it a try, prices are a cut above the normal fast food fried chicken joints, averaging close to 10 ringgit per piece.

This set of 5 piece is about 53.95 ringgit and comes with 2 drinks, a coleslaw, and Cajun fries.

There's 5 or 6 spicy levels to choose from with hot being close to middle of it. There's only thighs and drumsticks and the pieces are rather huge in size.

Piping hot, crunchy skin, juicy meat, and those spicy powder does carry some kicks. Not as herbal as KFC, but does have it's own robust flavor and tasted fresher, if that make sense.

Oh the fries were pretty good too. Worth a visit.
    Taipei zoo is definitely a must visit for anyone w Taipei zoo is definitely a must visit for anyone who visits Taiwan for sure, only 100NTD to enter too.

Popular for their mee hun kueh with fried egg but we also really enjoyed the fried meeting with mantis prawns and their hokkien mee that comes with bits of pork lard. Mom was happy.
