I honestly believe that this place is highly underrated! This has to be one of the top spots for fresh seafood in the vicinity. It's conveniently situated right by the beach and the overall ambiance is truly remarkable. If you happen to be there during sunset, you'll be treated to one of the most breathtaking views.

The seafood fried rice only has two prawns, while the rest is fish. The egg is delicious, but everything else is just average.
