Jumbo Seafood is an award winning seafood restaurant that has been opened since 1987. Its Chilli Crab has been awarded the best Chili Crab in Singapore. Jumbo has 5 outlets in Singapore and I enjoy my experience at Demsey's very much. We brought along our own bottles of wine for a small corkage fee for every bottle.
Jumbo Seafood is famous for its delicious cuisine but at quite a high price. To make the most out of your dollars, you need to know what delicious food to order. The following dishes were highly recommended by an angel of fine taste and every dish tasted delicious.
Chilli Crab - Seasonal Price
 |
| Extremely Fresh Crab! |
Chilli Crabs is almost like our national dish. When tourists come to Singapore, they usually think of Chilli Crabs. Jumbo's version is quite special. The sauce was tangy, spicy and had a hint of fragrance from peanuts. The spice level was moderate so it is definitely suitable for most adults. The crabs also left a lasting impression because of its
freshness. It tasted very sweet and the flesh was very firm. It also did not stick to the shell. For this reason, Jumbo's crabs is definitely a Must Try.

Black Pepper Crab - Seasonal Price
 |
| Huge Claws |
Other than Chili Crab, Singapore is also famous for its Black Pepper Crab. Black Pepper Crab is usually cooked with black, white pepper and coriander. Jumbo's Black Pepper Crab was done very well. The black pepper sauce was not overwhelming and the taste of the yummy crab was still evident. One thing that I loved was that the crabs had huge claws. Impressive!

I am sure all of you have tried Yam Rings at Chinese restaurants but Scallops wrapped with Yam Rings was a first for me! I enjoyed this dish very much because I am a Yam lover. Fresh, sweet, juicy scallops with deep fried crispy yam, was simply irresistible.
