Big Taste in a Small Island – Rainbow Seafood Restaurant

Rainbow Seafood Restaurant was established by Mr CHAN Wai-ming, an indigenous resident of Lamma Island. Started as a small restaurant with only four tables in 1984, the restaurant now has a dining area for up to 800 customers. In 2009, the restaurant was listed as one of the Asia’s 450 best restaurants by The Miele Guide 2009/2010.

"Hong Kong folks really know how to enjoy seafood"

No wonder Hong Kong people love seafood. Good seafood restaurants are found everywhere particularly in Sai Kung, Lei Yue Mun and Lamma Island. Mr Jacky CHAN, the Group Head Chef of Rainbow Seafood Restaurant said, “The key to our success is our ability to maintain the food quality, which has won the praise from both local and overseas customers”. To ensure the good quality of their food, they source seafood ingredients from various countries – mantis prawns from Thailand, humpback groupers and leopard coral groupers from Indonesia as well as sea prawns and sea snails from different local suppliers.
