Limited daily servings — once it's gone in the evening, it's gone for the day. The lobster seafood and crab seafood dishes use fresh catches personally purchased from the fishing port that very day. Made with real ingredients and a rich broth without MSG, generous portions offer great value for money, making people fall in love after just one bite.

It has now relocated to No. 66, Section 2, Fufian Road, and lunch service has been added to its operating hours. The first floor is an outdoor dining area. When it was previously located on You'ai Street, Travel King Studio filmed there, featuring the “Mega Seafood Congee.” As soon as the show aired, it became an instant hit, with everyone rushing to try it.

The second and third floors have air-conditioned indoor seating.

The ingredients used are displayed upfront, so customers can see everything clearly — no need to worry about hidden items.

The menu allows diners to mark if they don’t eat celery, pepper, or garlic crisps, offering a thoughtful customization service.

The Lobster Seafood Congee not only includes a whole lobster but also comes loaded with a variety of seafood. Watch the Travel King Studio clips playing on the TV in-store — they reveal that the secret weapon behind the broth is Japanese “Hidaka Kelp.”

The restaurant staff have already cracked open the lobster shells, so you can easily peel and eat the meat at the table — super convenient.

The generous amount of roe is very tempting.

The tender and succulent lobster meat is sweet, springy, and full of chew.

Their congee is cooked to retain a rice-grain texture, so it doesn’t turn mushy in your mouth.

Assorted Sashimi (Salmon + Tuna + Swordfish): Add a bit of wasabi on the sashimi, then dip it in soy sauce to fully enjoy its fresh sweetness. Be sure not to mix the wasabi into the soy sauce.

Swordfish: Slightly white and translucent, soft, Q-textured, smooth yet with a slight bite.

Salmon: Rich in oil, sweet flavor, and tender texture.

Tuna: Sweet, soft, and tender, with moderate oiliness.

Crab Seafood Pasta: The broth and ingredients are the same as the lobster seafood version, while the crab varies seasonally.

The crab shells are pre-cracked too, so you can easily pull out the meat and enjoy it right at the table.

If you have trouble cracking the shell or extracting the meat, you can ask the staff for tools to help.

Thai Spicy and Sour Fish Maw: Made with fresh, boneless milkfish maw, paired with the owner’s homemade Thai-style spicy and sour sauce, topped with plenty of chopped scallions.

The fish maw is deliciously tender, and the sauce is tangy and spicy, making it increasingly appetizing the more you eat.
