CORPORATE PROFILE

The Seafood International Market & Restaurant Singapore's First Live Seafood Shopping and Dining Concept Awarded by Singapore Book of Records

A stalwart seafood dining destination since 1983, Seafood International Market & Restaurant has reopened its doors in March 2008 at the newly-launched Playground @ Big Splash after a $2.5 million complete revamp.

Seafood International Market & Restaurant was twice voted "Most Popular Seafood Restaurant" in 2005 and 2006 and have been conferred the World's First "ASEAN Seafood Restaurant" title by ASEAN Fisheries Federation since 1992.

Since the official opening in 1983 by Spiro Agnew, then Vice-President of USA, seafood lovers have been enticed by its Chinese-Thai style seafood cuisine, making the establishment the top choice for a corporate and leisure seafood shopping and dining experience.

LIVE SEAFOOD MARKETPLACE

Recognised by Singapore Book of Records as Singapore's first live seafood shopping and dining concept, Seafood International Market and Restaurant now boasts of a more spacious live seafood area featuring pristine catches, some exotic, from all around the world. Customers can walk through the market to pick out their choice from a variety of fish, prawns, shellfish, lobster and crabs to be prepared by the restaurant's team of chefs, or take away for cooking in the comfort of their own home.

The focal point of the seafood market is an artfully-displayed dessert counter set within a wooden boat structure. Here, diners can choose from a kaleidoscope of colourful Thai and local desserts which are made in-house ranging from the establishment's signature Durian pudding, Thai mango & sticky rice and Tub Tim Krob; red ruby in coconut cream.

Located next to the dessert counter is a wine cellar which carries a thoughtful and comprehensive selection of about 150 labels, predominantly from Australia and France, which complement seafood well. Staff is at hand to provide wine-pairing tips as well as recommendations.

THAI & CHINESE CUISINE

Witness the live cooking action at Seafood International Market & Restaurant through the new open-concept kitchen which gives diners a clear view of the action happening within.
