The lunch buffet this was the seafood, the mixed seafood in particular. That seafood was a cocktail of various types of clams, shrimps and small crabs. 

To make my Pinoy Garlic Buttered Mix Seafood, I used all the clams, shrimps and grabs that were available on our local market, stir-fried with garlic and butter, that was how simple. Except perhaps that I have to pre-cooked each type of seafood, this is to avoid overcooking seafood that require less cooking time.
