Highlights:
- Authentic Singapore dining experience: When Palm Beach opened its doors more than half a century ago, the goal was for each dish to “embody the spirit of Singapore and her culture”. This has proven to be a winning feat, especially considering the warm reception that the locals have given to their signature dishes such as Chili Crab, Black Pepper Crab, and Coco-Lobo.
- Birthplace of the Chili Crab: One of Singapore’s national dishes, the Chili Crab, is believed to have been conceived in the kitchen of Palm Beach. The restaurant is not only credited to be the originator of this dish, but also recognized for serving one of the absolute best on the entire island. Palm Beach’s Chili Crab has consistently made appearances in yearly Top 10’s.
- More than just crab: Palm Beach’s crab dishes are a must-try, but there is still an abundant selection of seafood and non-seafood dishes on their menu such as the Japanese Spiky Sea Cucumber, Braised Whole Abalone with French Foie Gras, Boston Lobster in Laksa Broth, Honey Tangy Barramundi, and Crispy Fragrant Duck.
