Introduction:

Mr. Lim Choon Ngee & Mdm Cher Yam Tian started their seafood restaurant along the Kallang River with just a couple of kerosene lamps, wooden tables and stools. The seafood was cooked using an open charcoal fire at that time. As the number of seafood lovers grew, the restaurant was then relocated to Bedok Beach (before the reclamation of land, now the ECP) along Upper East Coast Road.

They served not only the finest quality food, but also the most generous helpings. Seafood dishes were kept to a minimum to simplify their operations. Their specialities were, of course their creation, the Chilli Crab accompanied by local Crusty French loaf for dipping into the sauce, Black Sauce Prawns, Sambal Mussels, Fried Baby Squids, Teochew Style Steamed Fish and not forgetting Cockles dipped with Homemade Mum’s Chilli Sauce, prepared by Mdm Cher.

Their Seafood restaurant soon earned a reputation purely by word of mouth. Up till today, the food consistently earns the highest praise.

In 1985, Mr. and Mrs. Lim together with the family decided to migrate to Christchurch, New Zealand, selling off part of their restaurant shares and leaving the remaining shares to his son. Mr. Roland Lim, together with his wife Lilian and younger brother Richard, now operates their latest three-in-one Restaurant – Seafood, Cantonese and Tim Sum Dishes at Block 89, Marine Parade Central, #06-750 with a seating capacity of 1100 people.

Introduction:

Naked was coined by my wife, based on how she perceives my philosophy of unadulterated simplicity. Finn is the name of the lead from the 1998 movie version of Great Expectations. Francesco Clemente was commissioned for the paintings and drawings in the film and I love the sketchbook of sea life that Finn ‘drew’.

With top quality ingredients, it’s a shame to embellish and hide their natural subtle flavours with unnecessary seasoning and so they usually stick with just olive oil, sea salt and occasionally, unsalted butter when cooking.

Achieving consistency in their products is based on having quality supplies coupled with maintaining a strong and capable team. Their entire core team has been with them since the beginning and that has allowed seamless knowledge and skills transfer to the new hires.

Their menu lists the official FAO and scientific names of the species they offer. This is their fight against seafood fraud in Singapore. Being informed, They believe their customers will be better equipped in making the right choices in the future, be it in their restaurants or others.

LONG BEACH Seafood- Singapore’s leading seafood restaurant and also the CREATOR of the Original and Best Black Pepper Crab in Singapore.

It all started at Bedok Rest House (1946), where LONG BEACH Seafood was then one of the few restaurants that served local food. During that period, locals hardly ate out, except for major celebratory events such as Weddings. Located along the beach, LONG BEACH was frequently patronized by the British Army and soon became a bustling location popular with locals attracted by the sandy beach facing the sea.

The crowds continued to increase with time as word of mouth got around of the delectable seafood served.

Long Beach is also the first restaurant to bring in seafood where initially was never served but has now become popular favourites.

Brought in 20 years ago in the 1980s, these seafood include the Air Flown Live Alaskan King Crab, Razor Clam, or more commonly known as the Bamboo Clam, Abalone Conch, Mouse Cowrie, Tiger Sea Mantis, Geoduck, Robin Triton Clam, Japanese Hokkigai Clam, Alaskan Hokkigai and many more.

Growing in popularity of being the favourite seafood restaurant in Singapore, LONG BEACH propelled itself even further with the creation of their Legendary Black Pepper Crab, which has garnered the attention of not only the locals but of an International scale as well.

With years of continuous effort in providing Exotic and delectable LIVE seafood, the crowds continued to grow and eventually LONG BEACH Seafood became a household name as it is today.

Orchid Live Seafood first started her humble beginning at Orchid Country Club, in 1999.

Situated right beside the Driving Range, their reputation slowly grew with the presence of the frequent patrons of the club.

As most of the tables are placed in the alfresco dining area, their business was very much affected by the weather. It was a great location yet due to the space constrains, they often find themselves scrambling for proper kitchen space.

The first location they moved to was Bah Soon Pah Road in the year 2010.

 It is within the Yishun – Sembawang vicinity and customers were easily directed to this “kampung – liked” environment as it is situated in the Green Valley Farms. 

They carried on their legacy to the Seletar area with a restaurant space of small seating capacity. 

Fully air conditioned, it provided a better dining experience for diners who preferred a full indoor restaurant environment.

​They have been preparing for this move since November 2019 and they are finally, at the last step of preparations. All safe distancing, hygiene cleaning have been stepped up and they aim to prepare a safe and pleasant experience for their diners!
