Golden Prawn Seafood Restaurant is famous in Batam and known to Singaporeans for their seafood.\u00a0 But according to Wikitravel, Golden Prawn \u201cseems inexpensive to touristing Singaporeans but is well-known in Batam to be an expensive tourist trap. The seafood they serve may not be fresh, which they will attempt to mask by deep frying them.\u201d At Harbour Bay Ferry Terminal, there is a row of seafood restaurants right by the sea.\u00a0 Most popular is Wey Wey Seafood.\u00a0 It is so popular that they opened another restaurant Wey Wey2 two doors away.\u00a0 The prices at this entire row of seafood restaurants are not indicated on the menus.\u00a0 In other words, the prices may fluctuate between different customers.\u00a0 Here is a sample of the prices quoted for 1 pax portion at Hawaii Live Seafood , which is the restaurant sandwiched between Wey Wey and Wey Wey2. Fried Seafood Noodles IDR$18,000 Steamed scallops IDR$50,000 BBQ Squid IDR$35,000 Verdict: The seafood at both Hawaii Live and Wey Wey is not very tasty and the quantity is little.\u00a0 Worse, the seafood is just a notch above unfresh.\u00a0 As such, though the prices seem cheap, the seafood is not really good value for money.\u00a0 Tip 1: ask for discount at the end of meal.\u00a0 I asked for a discount and they gave me a 10% discount, and I only ordered 3 items.\u00a0 If you ask for a discount when ordering, they simply give you less quantity.\u00a0 Tip 2: My hotel Swiss-Belhotel Harbour Bay was just a few steps away from the row of seafood restaurants.\u00a0\u00a0 It is recommended that you pack your food for take away back to your hotel room to avoid eating in the sour stench of sluice and sewage.","thumbnail_url":"http:\/\/travelrestauranthotel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/20131010-Batam_00042_tn-300x200.jpg"}
