So, I got some help from Von who recommended this a seafood restaurant, and also offered to buy the birthday cake as well. So, so thankful to Von! So, I made a booking at Kai's Plato, and pre-ordered the platter (see more in the pictures below) to be shared.
Why all the hassle? I figured because of the recent workload that Min has on her plate, I'd like to change that plate around for something nicer. Plus, she likes surprises. She wouldn't see this coming from a mile away =D
A reminder to tell me of her birthday
No, it's not an alarm, but I think it's sync-ed from FB if not mistaken.
We were late for our booking due to slow traffic, but I had already informed the boss of the place about it. The boss was pretty cool and left our tabled reserved for us. Von & Sen Yee arrived earlier than me. The rest came in just moments are Min & I arrived. Yet, we still have to wait for our pre-order item to arrive.
It's a Friday night, and I guess that's why there's so many people here at Kai's Plato!
Captain Platter (for 4 pax)
RM229.80
When our dinner arrives, it was astonishing!
Top Layer: Claims, Squid, Prawns, Cheese-baked Mussels and baby octopus
Behold the eye-opening sight of wonderous seafood!
2nd Layer: Crabs, Scallops & Lobster
Unfortunately one of the crabs went bad,
but thankfully the boss had it replaced for us almost immediately.
This is good service!
3rd Layer: Giant Crab
This was additional order, RM68 per crab
Just to give you an idea of how big the crab was
The last layer: Soup, to be mixed with noodles!
At the end of the seafood savory, there's soup which is to be mixed with noodles (provided separately, but it's under the Captain's Platter set)
The wall decorations were very unique as patrons of the restaurant
can stick their scallop shells on the walls.
and yes we had red wine, on the house!
Because it was Min's birthday =)
I wanted to try some artistic shot of the crabs, prawns and lobsters' remains
Not sure if it works, but there's some feel in it, I hope?
We were very satisfied with our seafood meal =)
Happy birthday my princess, Min =)
Another birthday shot of my princess
Then the restaurant's waiters brought this over to our table!
The group shot!
Von had to leave early so she wasn't in the picture =/
Surely can't miss out our picture together!
Thanks Sen Yee for reminding, lol
This picture went viral on FB,
where most of our colleagues realized that we're *finally* in a relationship.
lol xD
Of course I can't let this moment pass by.
The tradition must go on!
Wefie of us!

After our meals and cakes, we had our very own color-your-scallop-shells session.
Then we stuck them on the wall together with the others!
The panoramic view of the interior
If you don't mind splurging, I'd recommend to try out this. The experience is worth it. However, you need to be mindful of the portion. When the set states 4 pax, it is really meant for 4 people and no more (even if you're a small eater). Also, take note that the service is really slow when there's many people in the restaurant. This was the only issue when we were there, even our snacks came in pretty slow. But overall, this is a fine place to dine at. You might want to consider to do a booking in advance if you want to dine there, as I understand that they're pretty packed, especially Fridays nights and Weekends.
