I have added one more item to the menu - included Stir fried Crayfish. Recommended by the restaurant.

Approx cost per head is $30 per head, before GST, and depending on mkt prices of some of the seasonal items.

The restaurant does have 5 big tables for 50 pax. So i have tentatively booked it for 50 pax. We are now about 24 pax (approx) and have space.

Do pen the date down and put it on your makan calendar. Sign up early to avoid disappointment.

cheers.

This restaurant is opened by my uncle's friend and our family goes there every year for whatever occasion.
And well, I don't really like it...
But yeah, it did improve in standards as compared to the past.

Their fish was quite nice - but the last time i went there was about 2 years agon lah. So not sure how's the standard now.

But can't join you guys lei, my niece celebrating her 21st birthday on the same day :(

You guys have fun!

Prefer the cold crab and Sambal crayfish that Mong Hing (Key Point) serves. And their Yu Sheng during CNY. If i remember correctly Swa Gdn's fried chye poh kway teow is q good though, as is their "money bags" when they do have it. - blu

Hi Fellow Foodies
I am a huge cold crab fan/chai poh kway teow of Swa Garden. A recent visit by my fellow kaki commented there could be a changed of chef as the food was very oily & salty. In other words, their standard has dropped alot. Let's hope the restaurant has improved after feedback, so you will be enjoy their fame dishes on your makan session.
