History

The restaurant has been in existence since the 1940s with its first outlet at Bedok Resthouse, and has helped shape Singapore's local seafood culinary tastes. Besides the black pepper crabs, it also lays claim to being the first restaurant in Singapore to serve live seafood, and its menu of barbecued tilapia, drunken prawns and crispy duck have become common dishes in other contemporary seafood restaurants.^[3]

The restaurant also sells Chilli crab, one of the national dishes of Singapore which was also invented along the East Coast area.^[4]
