Melissa 1st Gear January 21, 2012 Share January 21, 2012 Just for awareness: My mum found these 2 pieces of metal in the Promfret's stomach, which is to add on to the weight of the fish. This early morning is her 1st time buying from Chinatown, so she didn't know which stall is a 'reputable' one. This seller also one kind, preying on those aunties busy with grocery shopping during this pre-cny period. Hope he doesn't sleep well at night... Lastly, Happy Lunar new year! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
