With a history that dates back to 1976, Red House hasearned itself a reputation for its excellent Singapore-styleseafood. Signature dishes include the seafood soup that’s redolent of prawns, scallops and mushrooms. Naturally, the classic chilli crab is also delightful, with ocean-fresh crustaceans served in a perfectly balanced sweet-savoury sauce hit with just the right amount of spice. Live fish is prepared in numerous ways here—when in doubt, ask for the marble gory to be steamed with superior soy sauce. For non-seafood options, try the crispy duck done Szechuan style, in which a whole duck is deep-fried, shredded andserved in ethereally light crepes.

The service here is thoughtful and warm, making for a happily comfortable dining experience.
