Jumbo Seafood

As it fitting for its name, Jumbo is arugably one of the biggest names in the business. The chain has expanded regionally to China, Thailand, Taiwan and Vietnam, with more to come. The seafood joint’s been serving chilli crabs (from $88/kg) at its birthplace, East Coast Park, since 1987 and has long been a favourite of many. The reason for its popularity has to be its choice of crabs – they’re all extremely meaty. Its sauce is pretty unique, too, deploying ground peanuts for an added crunch. Other crowd favourites include the salted egg prawns ($24) – wok-fried in a thick, salted egg sauce, and the plump, juicy scallops wrapped in a fragrant yam ring ($20).
