JUMBO Seafood - Jewel

The 38 Best Restaurants in Singapore | Eater

"Check with your local police station, but a trip to Singapore without trying the national dish of sauce-slathered chilli crabs might be an actual crime. Mud crabs are simmered in a vibrantly sweet, savory, tangy, and slightly spicy sauce that’s made from ketchup, candlenut, chiles, and other spices. Try it at the iconic Jumbo Seafood, a decades-year-old institution that’s listed on the Singapore stock exchange, specializing in mud crabs weighing at least 800 grams (nearly 2 pounds) each. The company has five branches in Singapore, and the one at Riverside Point has the added bonus of a stellar river view. While you’re here, get your claws on another local staple, black pepper crabs made from firm-fleshed Dungeness." - Evelyn Chen
