A Nice "Shell Out" Night

On Friday, I went out my colleagues (8 of us including me) to celebrate birthday for our April babies.

One of the birthday girl suggested Shell Out @ Sunway Giza as we have heard of some good reviews majority of us have not been there. So we decided to give it a try, even tho we know that the price may not be that friendly to our pocket.

One of the thing that caught my attention was the plastic apron that they supplied to all their customer which read as "Life is too short to be serious....LET'S EAT". I find it adorable....don't ask me why... haha


As we dig thru their menu, personally I find that their price is indeed kinda pricey. An average crab would cost you around RM 70-ish and most of the shell food that they have are priced by grams.

This is how you order their food:

Step 1: Choose your seafood - Crab, King Prawns, Crawfish, Clam, Green Mussel, Giant Scallop, Bamboo Clam, Octopus Canadian Lobster and King Crab Leg

Step 2: Choose your sauce - Lemon Pepper, Butter Garlic, Shell Bang, Black Pepper and Curry Curry

Step 3: Choose your spice level - Mild, Medium or OMG (extreme spicy)

Step 4: Add-ons - Brocolli, Corn, Potato and Sausages

After a few rounds of "what do you fancy here?", "What are you craving for?" and a typical answer of "Up to you, I'm fine with anything", we decided on the following:

Crawfish (which is every's favourite) in Shell Bang sauce (their recommended)
King prawns in Butter Garlic sauce - add brocolli & corn
Bamboo clam in Lemon Pepper sauce (if I'm not mistaken)
Clam (lala) in Curry Curry sauce
Gant Scallop in Butter Garlic sauce
-  Fried chicken wings
-  Fries
Crawfish in Butter Garlic sauce (round 2)
Clam (lala) in Shell Bang sauce (round 2) - add corn

Out of those, my personal favourite was Crawfish (or they call it as Yabbies...for whatever reasons), Clam and Chicken Wings.
I would recommend their Shell Bang sauce and Butter Garlic sauce. Both taste good with any of the seafood.
As for the other sauce, well.....to me they are just ok.....meh.... nothing great, but that's just me.

They don't provide you with plates or cutlery, tho you can request for it.
When the food arrived, the waiter just poured everything at the middle of the table and everyone just literally dig-in.
Personally, that should be the way how we should enjoy our seafood - no cutlery, no plates and etc....just raw!

Our total bill was about RM 750-ish - inclusive of drinks, GST and other tax.
If you asked me, will I go back to Shell Out, I won't frequent that place because I'm sure I can easily get a better seafood else where BUT.....
I would want to bring AK there.....just for the experience.... :)
