With an emphasis on seafood, this alfresco restaurant in a cosy bungalow is the place to come if you're craving a jumbo platter of steamed mussels, juicy scallops braised in butter, or a serving of fresh oysters that still smells of the sea. Prices are steep, but the weekend lunch (noon to 3pm Saturday to Sunday) offers a three-course combo for 950B.
