Tambun is located on the southern tip of mainland Butterworth. The place is full of seafood restaurants each claiming to serve the freshest and cheapest seafood. To me, I like a place that has a nice atmosphere, easy to find and has lots of car park available.
Hence, one place that I will always go when having Tambun seafood is the Fish Village Seafood Restaurant:
If you're driving from the South, go along the North South Highway until you reach the Bukit Tambun exit. After the toll, you'll reach a T-junction. Turn right and go straight till you reach a cross road. Just go straight and you will see this restaurant located on your left. Very easy to find and car parks are plenty. Make sure you go early (~6pm++) to get tables else you'll have to wait.
The choices of seafood are aplenty, you can go to the aquariums and select whatever you want to eat.
I had the sweet and sour sauce crabs:
and also the mango strips with cuttle fish deep fried fish:
Both are very nice and absolutely delicious!!! The seafood are very fresh too.
As side orders, we tried the special satay:
The satay sticks are first dipped into the peanut sauce first before being BBQ-ed. Very nice and special indeed.
So what's the cost of the meal?
2 crabs : RM18.90
Fish : RM15
Satay: RM6.00 for 10 sticks
Chinese Tea: RM2
Some other charges which I don't really bother: RM1
Cheap cheap! :D
