FAQ: best seafood Singapore
Where should first-timers eat seafood in Singapore?
Book a chilli crab room (Jumbo-group options above) or a boil table if groups want American spice bags. Compare scores on Singapore listings.
Is chilli crab always very spicy?
House house-styles differ. Classic chilli crab is sweet-spicy more than pure fire; ask for milder heat if needed.
