Shi Lin Causeway SeafoodLocation plays a major role.
Since Shi Lin is located in a business district or corporate area, most customers that visit are business executives during weekdays.
There is also a good market for Filipino-Chinese families in the sorrounding subdivisions (Valle Verde, Greenmeadows, and Corinthian) for weekend operations.
Causeway Seafood Restaurant is located in a commercial and residential area.
Most of its clients are families and business owners in the area.
