Fall-Themed Catering

When it comes to off-site catering, clients often enjoy seeing their food presented in a setting that follows the season. For this house party, we picked a floral arrangement with yellow, orange and brown hues, spread pretty red maple leaves on the table and added a pumpkin to the centerpiece. There was also pumpkin and shrimp rice noodles in the buffet dinner that night!

Dish of the Month - "Heavenly" Pillow

...which is: Ground meat and buttery mashed potato balls served with bokchoy in a savory sweet gravy

Why is it called Heavenly Pillow? The combination of ground beef and mashed potatoes rolled together into a ball makes for a heavenly and buttery, yet hearty bite.

Home Cooking Recipe Series: Steamed Fish with Ginger & Scallions

Steamed whole fish with ginger & scallions is a staple Cantonese dish for practically every Chinese family at the dinner table. It is favored for its mild yet flavorful taste, ease of preparation and as a healthy meal choice. This dish gets its influence from Guangdong, where fresh live seafood is a specialty. Guangdong is located on the southern coastline of China.

A Taste of Seven Seas in Williamsport, PA

Owners Edward & Corinna traveled four hours to Williamsport, PA on Tuesday to support the Chinese Taipei Kuei Shan Little League team, who played against Mexico in a preliminary match and brought a hot & delicious dinner for the Little League-ers.

Exotic Sea Catch In Our Tanks

Have a seafood feast at Seven Seas! Fresh red snapper, Chilean sea bass, Jonah crab and croaker fish are currently in the house.

Now to introduce a couple of our more exotic catches...

Jonah Crab

Found on the Atlantic coast of North America, the Jonah crab is known for its' strong claws. These well-muscled claws are prized over its' legs for food. The Jonah crab is closely related to the Dungeness crab, so its' white, flaky meat has a similar sweetness.

Croaker Fish

These fish are so named because of the repetitive throbbing or drumming sounds they make. Typically found in temperate and tropical waters, they live primarily in estuaries, bays, and muddy river banks. Croakers contain delicate, lean white meat with a sweet flavor that ranges from mild to moderately pronounced.

The croaker, red snapper and sea bass will go perfectly with some of our signature cooking styles: steamed with ginger & scallions, broiled in a miso sauce, braised in garlic sauce and steamed with hot sauce.

Supplies are limited, so do come and join us for a meal soon!

New Shell Lobster, Get In My Belly Now!

Available between July to October, lobster meat is at its most tender and flavorful after the lobster has shed its old, thick shell for a new, larger one.

On Thursdays, buy one at regular price, get the second one for free! (Equal or lesser value.)

Pair that juicy lobster meat with one of our signatures sauces -- that's deliciousness on a plate.

Home Cooking Recipe Series: Rustic Chinese-style Chicken & Potato Stew

We love our food at Seven Seas, but there's no doubt that a good and healthy home-cooked meal can be wonderfully satisfying. As a tribute to Chinese home cooking, we'll be featuring some of the best-loved recipes.

Kicking off the series is the rustic chicken & potato stew. Depending on regional influences and a family's taste preference, there are many variations to this dish. While our recipe makes a drier, more starchy stew, others like a wetter gravy and use only chicken wings. Part of this recipe's charm is that you choose what works best for you and make it your family's own. 

If You Need Gift Cards...

We have them! They come in $20, $25, $30, $50 & $100. Perfect as a gift for the Chinese food lover in your family! Or as raffle giveaways at office parties, birthday gift, etc. Email us: contact@sevenseasrestaurant.com to buy. You can also order by phone 301-770-5020 and we will even mail it out for you.

You probably won't find this dish anywhere else as it was created in-house. This is a combination of thin rice noodles stir-fried with pork, shrimp, pumpkin, onions, cabbage and green onions.
