Seafood Restaurants are the luxuries families in Singapore splurge on for big occasions like birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, reunions, family gatherings, class gatherings, company functions and are the occasional luxury than a regular meal as seafood meals are typically high cost and exorbitant.
Frequently, these restaurants present seafood dishes in set meals which reduces the final bill significantly.
About Seafood Restaurants in Singapore
Many Singaporeans remember outings to Long Beach in East Coast and the National Stadium for big family gatherings and elaborate, extravagant dinners there with Chilli Crab, Steamed Garoupa, Bamboo Clams, Cold Crab, Drunken Prawns,Fried Tofu, Fried Squid, Mee Goreng, Steamed Eefu noodles etc.
Restaurants often display the live crabs and fish in large water tanks in the restaurant entrance and clients can even opt to have prawns cooked live at their dinner tables.
Next to steak and buffet meals at hotels, Seafood meals are often the occasional luxury splurge rather than everyday meal and the experience of seeing succulent fish, crabs, prawns swimming alive in large water tanks before your meal is always quite an experience, almost akin to visiting an aquarium and consuming the seafood as delicacies soon after.

YY Wong The Peking duck is being prepared as you stepped into the outlet (upon confirmation) while you look into their e-menu, since most patrons visits them for their famed duck. You may also add $12 to have them cook the remaining portion of the duck (mostly bones) in collagen, cereal or ginger/onion. All of the dishes were well done, portions were perfect for 4, no complaints at all for the taste, ambience, portion and service level (includes covid preparedness). The bill however, came out to be over $260 (includes 2 snacks and 4 drinks) for the $188 nett meal, which wasn’t expected since its “nett”. |
