Jumbo Seafood is famous for its chilli crab, a Southeast Asian seafood dish associated with both Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine. The dish is often described as sweet yet savoury, sensuous, and rich, with a fluffy texture. It is commonly served with fried or steamed mantou buns, perfect for scooping up the delicious sauce. The first Jumbo outlet is located at East Coast Park along the seaside, where you can enjoy the sea breeze while feasting on fresh, scrumptious seafood. Other convenient outlets are located at Marina Bay Sands (MBS) and ION Orchard.
