Seafood dishes were kept to a minimum to simplify their operations. Their specialities were, of course their creation, the Chilli Crab accompanied by local Crusty French loaf for dipping into the sauce, Black Sauce Prawns, Sambal Mussels, Fried Baby Squids, Teochew Style Steamed Fish and not forgetting Cockles dipped with Homemade Mum&#8217;s Chilli Sauce, prepared by Mdm Cher.<\/p><p>Their Seafood restaurant soon earned a reputation purely by word of mouth. Up till today, the food consistently earns the highest praise.<\/p><p>In 1985, Mr. and Mrs. Lim together with the family decided to migrate to Christchurch, New Zealand, selling off part of their restaurant shares and leaving the remaining shares to his son.
