Thanks Wanzhen and Yat Kah for the invite and Street50 for the hospitality!
I am always game for local food in restaurants, mostly for the creativity that the chefs bring to the table - sometimes I get surprised that these versions are even better than the food center versions. This visit, was a showcase for their latest promotions with twists of course.
Here's a greater reason to visit Bay Hotel during National Day - it's located away from the hustle and bustle and road closures and, there's lobster up to tempt!
In conjunction with our nation's 48th birthday, STREET 50 has launched Black Pepper Lobster ($48), a local favourite with a globa twist. Available till 11 August, lobster fans make haste.Carribean lobsters are used to create this dish hence a firmer bite amidst the finger licking good black pepper sauce.
I adore how they made this dish so easy to consume - no splotchy mess required since the chefs lovingly sliced the lobster into manageable bite sizes. This combination has worked for crabs and now lobsters too - pair it with a bowl of steaming rice, happiness assured.
The other ongoing hotpot promotion is available till next year, so more reason to head to STREET 50 to check out these goodies.
Spot the dollop of acquired fermented tofu, sesame sauce, spring onions, signature chilli sauce and sha cha sauce all in one. It was a really delicious dip!
Or go normal with the usual dark soya sauce, garlic and chillies.
1-for-1 Asahi Super Dry Mini Can Bucket (10 cans per bucket) ($50)
The cute as can be miniature Asahi Super Dry Mini cans are the highlight of the promotion, it actually goes well with hotpot! Available in the evenings only, this promotion is great for both ladies and mens night out since these are so easy to chug down.
STREET 50's kitchen is open till 4am daily before reopening at 6am for breakfast. Definitely a business hotel with more than business hotel service - I cannot wait to be back to check out their other local treats.

Hotpot and Asahi Super Dry Mini Can Bucket (10 cans) ($50)
Good for two persons, this hotpot deal offers a premium meat platter,
premium seafood platter, vegetable platter, noodles and rice.
One flicker to kickstart the meal.
Spicy tomyum broth - shiok maxed out.
The chicken broth is a result of 5 hours of chicken stock while the tom yam broth is filled with the goodness of natural ingredients – a mix of chilli padi, lime leaves, dried shrimps, blue ginger, chicken, lemon grass, coriander leaf and root.
A mass of greens piled on top juicy wantons and fish paste skins.
Pork and chicken.
Fishballs thoughtfully halved and sliced fish.
Prawns and shell fish.

I personally favour the more characteristic tomyum broth to wholesome chicken broth. The kind that stings the senses and leaves a heave of sigh of "shiok", do not mess with it if spicy is not up your alley.
Served in exquisite royalty style hotpots, I felt teleported back to China with these dining ware. These come in personal pots so that makes trying both broths easy and helps one keep track of his food - I have had so many occasions of my prawns floating off or never to be found again in the cauldron of broth.
The rest ordered off the ala carte menu to supplement the meal - I can never get enough variety for hotpot!
Bouncy scallops and squid.
Droolicious thin beef slices for a shabu shabu experience.
Vermicilli to soak up the delicious broth and slurp down for a hearty finish.
Hotpot is hardly complete without a D-I-Y condiment corner. This is quite a magic corner where I get to concoct my dipping sauce.
