At the entrance of the Beijing restaurant is a giant fish tank with Alaskan crabs, prawns and fish.
The restaurant, which covers an area of about 600 square meters, offers a refined dining experience.
"You can taste authentic Singapore seafood here. All of our crabs and much of the other seafood are imported from countries such as Sri Lanka and the Philippines, and our spices are from Singapore and Malaysia," says Chan Kian-Wah, the executive chef of Jumbo Seafood (China).
He says that the restaurant chain emphasizes food safety and quality.
Besides the chilli crab, another best-seller is the black pepper crab. The dish has a pungent and fragrant flavor.
