Beaulieu House in Sembawang Park

Nayr & I decided to pak tor and check out Beaulieu House Restaurant yday. (thanks to Yepeng for telling us abt the plc)
At first, we went searchin along the wrong road. I thought it was along Admiralty Road East. We had to stop by the side of the road, use our phone to check the gmail that Yepeng sent, got the no. of the restaurant, called them, only to realise they are actually in Sembawang Park! Duh, I feel so paiseh, cos its inside my territory, yet i didnt know it existed!
Anyway, it's really a nice place - quiet and romantic. It somehow resembles Galley by the Straits (at Admiralty Road West inside SAF Yacht Club). Even the price and the menu is rather similar.
There were not too many customers yesterday. Just a few couples and a group of Caucasians.

We asked the waitress how long they've been operating there. She answered in Chinese (strong Chinese accent) that the owner has run the business for over 20 years! We also checked out the history of the restaurant and the Sembawang area (printed and filed into a menu folder at the entrance).

There are both indoor and outdoor dining. Of cos, we chose outdoor. The setting is rather nice, except that the electricity tripped while we were halfway thu our meal! Luckily there were candlelights at every table. We were wondering if they placed them cos of the frequent blackouts, haha.
The food is ok, can say slightly above average. I tried the Seafood Combo. The grilled fish is yummy! But the prawns, mussels, oysters, etc are so-so only. Nayr tried the Chicken Lagsana, which tasted quite gelat after a while.. The bill was below $50. We then took a slow stroll along the beach for digestion after the meal. =) Atmosphere around the area is really nice. Hmm, I would rate it overall 4 out of 5.
