The featured "clam" in CalmClam is the essence of its cuisine. The Taiwanese-Italian fusion restaurant always selects the freshest clams and daily seafood from the fishing port. It combines them with various ingredients to create mouthwatering dishes like iron pot spice-braised clams, stewed clams in tomato sauce, clam gnocchi, and barramundi stewed with clams in capers and dill. Siaocyu(小区)even incorporates Taiwanese elements such as dried radish and salt-cured mullet roe to offer a creative, authentic, fresh, and flavorful dining experience.
