The brands include newly launched concept Jumbo 1987, named for the year Jumbo Seafood first opened at East Coast. Here, diners can enjoy a selection of popular Jumbo dishes like cereal prawns and mocha pork ribs, as well as lunch sets from $8.80 – all without service charge or GST.

What stands out is the plentiful array of live seafood, including crabs, lobster and geoduck. Pick out what you’d like and have it cooked in your preferred style. You can also purchase seafood to take home, and it will be cleaned and prepared for you.
Additionally, the menu at Jumbo 1987 includes several dishes you won’t find at any other Jumbo outlet, like curry fish head served with a jumbo-sized fried dough fritter ($58), Maotai three-cup chicken ($44), garlic pork belly ($16), glazed spare ribs ($26) and a crispy seafood beancurd dish ($28) that was on the original menu when Jumbo Seafood first opened at East Coast in 1987.
Other options include Tsui Wah, which offers Hong Kong cafe classics; a satay stall; a chicken rice stall; and a drinks and local breakfast stall.
Slated to join the lineup soon is local noodle brand Lau Lim Mee Pok.
Another interesting feature is the array of wines and beers available on tap via an automated self-service system. With prepaid cards, diners can choose their drink via a touch screen, then use the card to unlock the corresponding tap, with charges corresponding to the volume poured. There are over 20 selections priced from $0.36 per 10ml. Craft beer options include flavours like Ondeh Ondeh and Osmanthus Pear Cream Ale.
There are also live band performances in the evenings, from Monday to Saturday.
Jumboree is located at 26 Tai Seng Street #01-02, Singapore 534057. Open Mon–Sat 7am to 12am; Sun 7am to 10.30pm. More info via website.
