There’s something uniquely Singaporean about combining the flavours of local favourites with everyday fast food staples – and Long John Silver’s Singapore has done exactly that in the best possible way. As part of their National Day special, they have rolled out a new, limited-time menu that brings a fiery twist to their usual offerings. And it’s not just any twist – this time, they’ve reimagined the much-loved chilli crab, a dish Singaporeans are proud to call their own, into a delicious burger form.
Now available from 16 July 2025 onwards, this seasonal menu introduces the Chilli Crab Mantou Burgers – featuring the signature spicy-sweet sauce that locals love, paired with a crispy battered patty, some crunchy greens, and all sandwiched between a golden, deep-fried mantou bun. It’s exactly the sort of indulgent, comforting meal that hits the spot, especially during National Day season.
Let’s talk about why this is more than just another fast food promotion.
A Local Flavour Reimagined
Singapore’s National Day isn’t just about fireworks and parades – it’s also a celebration of their rich food heritage. Chilli crab, a staple in Singaporean cuisine, is known for its deep, complex flavour profile – the balance of spice, sweetness, and tanginess has made it a dish loved across generations.
But Long John Silver’s has done something pretty special: they’ve taken the essence of this dish and made it easy to enjoy, without all the usual mess of cracking shells and wiping off sauce. The Chilli Crab Mantou Burger encapsulates all the same bold flavours but in a casual, quick-serve format. It’s a perfect bite for those who want the chilli crab experience without the sit-down seafood setting.
Mantou – A Clever Twist
Rather than going with a typical burger bun, Long John Silver’s has upped the game by using deep-fried mantou. This is a genius move – not only does the mantou soak up the chilli crab sauce beautifully, but its crisp texture and mild flavour perfectly complement the heat and richness of the filling. The result? A burger that feels both indulgent and distinctively local.
And there’s no compromise on choice – diners can opt for Alaska pollock or crispy chicken to suit their preference. Both are generously coated in the iconic chilli crab sauce and served with butterhead lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and cheese. It’s a harmony of textures and flavours that makes each bite satisfying.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss It
There’s a charm in how Long John Silver’s has embraced Singapore’s cultural pride through food. National Day is when locals look back at what makes their island city so special – and nothing represents that better than the chilli crab.

Plus, the pricing is reasonable for what is essentially a full meal. With sets starting from just $9.90, it’s easy to treat oneself or a friend to something a little more exciting than the usual fast food fare.
