Crispy Fried Fish @ Astons Specialities

 They call it Crispy Fried Fish but if you order it with a side of french fries, you can very well call it Fish and Chips. *ignore me, I'm sleepy*

It's huge fillet of fish breaded and deep-fried served with a wedge of lemon, tartar sauce and your choice of two side dishes. As usual, I had the baked potato and coleslaw. I really should get other side dishes next time...

The fish was cooked perfectly through while still maintaining it's crispiness and wasn't as oily as other fried fish dishes out there. For this visit, they served a really big fillet that I was only able to finish two-thirds of the thing. Very filling for SG$7.50.

Note: Excuse the picture please, I took this shot when I was already into my second bite. ;-)

Grilled Salmon Fillet @ Astons Specialities

Another lunch trip to Astons Specialities. I had my usual sidings: baked potato and coleslaw but this time I ordered their Grilled Salmon Fillet. The fish was perfectly cooked although the charred top was not to my liking. It didn't feel burnt but more like charred bits that stuck from their griller. I *shudder* to think that might be true. This meal was more expensive than the Grilled Fish (what kind of fish that was, I don't know) at SG$12.50.

My lunch buddy ordered their Crispy Fried Fish which looked really good. It looked like regular fish & chips but the breading more "bread crumby", if you know what I mean. I might order that next time.

Overall, another good meal at Astons.

Grilled Black Pepper Fish @ Astons Specialities

I thought the fish would be flavored with black pepper but in reality it was just grilled fish topped with their "versatile" black pepper sauce. I say versatile with quotation marks because it's a sauce they use over everything else that has "black pepper" on the menu. Before I became pescetarian, I used to enjoy their black pepper chicken -- yep, it's the same sauce. But I'm not complaining, still works well with the fish.

As Astons Specialities is known for, every dish (or most) comes with your choice 2 side dishes. They have a good selection of them divided into: (1) hot side dishes and (2) cold side dishes. You can choose from mashed potatoes or baked potatoes, garden salad or potato salad, to corn on the cob to side vegetables. I personally prefer their baked potato (topped with butter, no other choices) and coleslaw -- as you can see in the photo above. You can have both cold side dishes or both hot side dishes if you want, it's your choice. The main dish costs SG$7.50 which isn't bad at all.
