Giant Prawns and sauteed cabbage for lunch!

When I saw the serving dish full of giant prawns, I already knew what I wanted to have for my lunch. This dish is a rare find in Singapore at a price that's similar to pork and beef. Everything on this plate cost me S$6.00 only. I think that it's considered an affordable meal considering the quality and the size of these prawns.

It looks like the hawker stall doesn't have a clear name written on the signboard however, it is still one of the popular stalls in this group of hawkers. It's located at the 465 Foodcourt at 465 Crawford Lane. The foodcourt is located at the far end of the apartment building so it wasn't easy to find.

For me, I think this meal goes well with a fizzy drink. It helps balance the flavor of the dish. A refreshing fruit juice may be a nice pair to it as well.

When I was choosing the vegetable pair for this sauteed prawns I realized that I should pick the one that would blend well with its flavor. I got the sauteed cabbage which for me is the best pairing for the dish. That was it for me, I didn't want to add anything else to this plate because I wanted to focus on these dishes together with the rice.

The prawns taste good and fresh. The only challenge about this meal is peeling off the shell of the prawns. There were no gloves provided so I had to handle it using a spoon and fork. I enjoyed this meal but I guess it would have been more enjoyable if I had more of these prawns and used my bare hands to eat this meal.

Let me show you just how many nice seafood dishes are on this food stall. Those big fishes will probably cost around S$10 to S$20 depending on the type of fish. I would try any of these on my next visit but not for today. I'm not yet ready to spend that much for lunch today.
