"We chanced upon AD Mookata as we like to try different hotpot/bbq in the area (there are so many in Mount Austin). The deciding factor was probably the live crabs. Diners can pick the live crabs and pass to the staff to clean and cut into smaller pieces before the crabs are brought to your table There are also standard selection of vegetables, meat (for hotpot & bbq), cooked food, drinks and dessert available. Areas of improvement would be having the cooked food to have a warmer so it's always warm. Flavour of the soup base can be better.. Interestingly, they indicate opening Hours is till 7am. It would be a place to look out for if you are finding food places to dine at Wee Hours If you love crabs, this might be for you."

"只能说很划算!很少地方能吃到活螃蟹自助,而且都吃到蟹黄,很新鲜。自己可以选了马上就能上桌了。啦啦也很大颗,烤肉种类很多,还有羊排。有烤炉和电磁炉可以选,一边烤肉还能一边吃火锅,用时两个小时。还有其他泰式菜可以另外单点。"

"Had a dinner seafood & meat buffet here for 69.90rm per pax. Able to choose 2 soup bases and grill on the circle shaped grill. Really wide range of food, white clams, crab, prawns, scallops, bamboo clams, squid, mussels, fish etc. Also has marinated meats for the grill and mama noodles. Place is clean and well designed, with a chilled vegetable section, cooked food section, free flow beverage counter and dessert too. Food was great and the fresh seafood stands out. Staff was friendly and adjusted our soup and grill heat power levels for us. Even let us in to see the spread before committing to eat the buffet. Would visit again in the future, has indoor and outdoor seating."
