When it comes to seafood, Singapore is in a league of its own. A nation surrounded by water and steeped in a rich culinary heritage; it’s no wonder seafood holds a cherished place at the dining table. At Chatterbox, we uphold this love for seafood to new heights, blending time-honoured hawker classics with the sophistication of a five-star dining experience. Whether a visitor or a local, prepare to embark on a gastronomic journey showcasing some of Singapore’s most iconic seafood dishes reimagined with luxury.
Singapore is celebrated for its unparalleled seafood offerings, from bustling hawker centres to the finest dining establishments. This island nation owes its culinary prowess to its rich multicultural heritage, where Malay, Chinese, Indian, and Peranakan flavours intermingle to create complex and comforting dishes. At Chatterbox, we draw inspiration from this vibrant heritage, adding a refined twist to the classics you know and love.
Laksa, a quintessential Singaporean dish, gets an indulgent upgrade at Chatterbox with our Lobster Laksa. This crowd-pleaser features Boston lobster, quail eggs, fish cake, thick vermicelli noodles, and dried beancurd; all served in a rich coconut broth infused with spices and fresh coconut milk. Each spoonful celebrates bold flavours, perfectly balanced to deliver a creamy, spicy, and aromatic experience.
Another hawker favourite that shines at Chatterbox is our Seafood Hokkien Mee. This umami-rich stir-fry combines fresh prawns, squid, pork belly, eggs, bean sprouts, and chives with a mix of thick bee hoon and yellow noodles. The dish is simmered in a robust homemade seafood broth, ensuring every bite bursts with flavour. It’s the perfect dish to showcase Singapore’s love for hearty, comforting meals.
Seafood takes on a playful twist in our Chatterbox Rojak. This refreshing, tangy dish combines fruits and vegetables tossed in a sweet prawn paste with peanuts, deep-fried prawn fritters, and other crunchy delights. It’s a nostalgic nod to Singapore’s hawker heritage, presented in a way that’s as elegant as it is flavourful.
At Chatterbox, we elevate Char Kway Teow, a dish synonymous with Singaporean hawker culture. Flat rice noodles are stir-fried with juicy cockles, prawns, fish cake, and bean sprouts in a smoky, sweet soy sauce, delivering the perfect balance of savoury and sweet flavours.
Our Seafood Hor Fun is another dish that’s not to be missed. This hearty plate features fresh tiger prawns and assorted seafood wok-fried with velvety flat rice noodles in a robust oyster sauce. Each bite is infused with the smoky “wok hei” (breath of the wok) quintessential to this dish.
At Chatterbox, we believe in honouring the roots of our dishes while enhancing them with premium ingredients and meticulous preparation. Take, for instance, our Steamed Scallops with Vermicelli and Assam Sauce. Fresh, succulent scallops are steamed to perfection and paired with tangy assam sauce, which imparts notes of lemongrass and ginger flower. Served atop vermicelli that soaks up every flavour, this dish is a testament to our dedication to creating unforgettable culinary experiences.
Another standout is the BBQ Sambal Seafood Platter, a delightful medley of squid, lala clams, and king prawns. Each component is seasoned with our homemade sambal chilli paste and grilled to perfection, delivering unmistakably Singaporean smoky, savoury, and slightly spicy notes.
This dish features buttery, flaky barramundi in a tangy, sweet-and-sour Nyonya-style curry. It’s a perfect marriage of bold flavours and tender textures, making it a must-try for seafood enthusiasts.
Our wok-fried sambal lala clams are a quintessential hawker-style dish. It combines fresh, plump clams with a fiery sambal chilli paste, resulting in a spicy, savoury delight for those craving bold flavours.
For a good reason, UNESCO has recognised Singapore’s hawker culture: it’s a treasure trove of flavours, techniques, and traditions. At Chatterbox, we bring this rich heritage into fine dining, reimagining hawker classics with a luxurious twist.
This dish exemplifies how we elevate hawker-style seafood. Crispy fried sea perch is topped with sambal from charred green chillies, creating a bold yet nuanced flavour profile. It pays homage to tradition while pushing the boundaries of culinary creativity.
A local favourite, our Chilli Prawns are wok-fried in a thick, sweet, tangy chilli sauce with just the right spice. Paired with golden-fried mantou buns, this dish invites you to mop up every last drop of the sauce, ensuring no flavour goes to waste.
No seafood feast is complete without a touch of sweetness, and Chatterbox delivers in spades. For an authentic taste of Singapore, try our Signature Coconut Ice Cream, served in a coconut husk and topped with tropical fruits and crunchy walnuts. Another crowd favourite is the Pandan Cake with Gelato, a harmonious blend of pandan chiffon cake, soy pandan gelato, and coconut crumble. These desserts are the perfect way to end an indulgent and satisfying meal.
Our Cheng Tng and Chendol are delightful options for those seeking traditional desserts. Cheng Tng is a refreshing mix of barley, lotus seeds, and snow fungus. At the same time, Chendol features gula melaka (palm sugar), green jelly noodles, and kidney beans. Both offer a sweet conclusion steeped in local heritage.
