sounds yummy
there are the hairy crabs which are damned expensive
the pincers actually have the worst flesh.. not tender... i like the flesh in the body and the smaller legs
vinegar crabs are just pickled in black sauce and vinegar eaten raw... nuts.. starting to salivate.. have not eaten for over 20 years! Originally posted by MooKu:Oh... I remember whenever I went to China as a kid, I'd eat that da4 zha2 xie4 almost every place with seafood.. with vinegar and garlic or something.. it tastes really good! and the egg waaaaaaah. niceeeeeee. -

You know, along Joo Chiat Road there is a Bai Xian Crab Restaurant selling a wide variety of crab dishes. I mean, the way they cook the crab.. They've got stuff like chilli crab, chilled crab, black pepper crab, alot of different kinds lar can't remember. I think it's not bad, the price is quite cheap too. If you all pass by Joo Chiat Road can go and take a look... It's near to the Hotel 81 on the stretch closer to Katong Mall.

to me, there is only one way to eat crab... you steam it...
only then do you taste the sweetness of the crabs... without the chilli and pepper and whatever overwhelming it.. most singaporeans overwhelm their food with strong flavours and they don't really taste the subtle flavours of their food..
and nuts.. hairy crabs can be gotten because of the high value.. but looking in vain for the past 2 decades for places that sell the vinegar crabs...Originally posted by MooKu:You know, along Joo Chiat Road there is a Bai Xian Crab Restaurant selling a wide variety of crab dishes.

Sometimes I can't take steamed crab. Eating certain shelled seafood that's not cooked 'properly' will make me feel very nauseous..Originally posted by the Bear:to me, there is only one way to eat crab... you steam it...

my cousin was once allergic.. then small amounts to build up immunity.. and soon he's eating them like no one's businessOriginally posted by MooKu:And it applies to prawns, scallops, mussels etc too luckily not fish -
wow.Originally posted by the Bear:shellfish...

hmm but maybe this... allergy like thing might be good.. cos shellfish have high levels of toxins right? -
i mean, so they may not be good for my face...
-
dunno.. i guess my supercharged immunity is good for some things...
don't eat then, mookie or in moderation -
hmm basically for food... excl. fruits, i don't have any special preference.. depends alot on the way they are cooked... and the seasoning and all...Originally posted by the Bear:dunno.. i guess my supercharged immunity is good for some things...

best way to cook shellfish, to me, is still to steam most of them
except for mud-crawlers which have to be stir-fried in fermented beans and chilliOriginally posted by MooKu:hmm basically for food... excl. fruits, i don't have any special preference.. depends alot on the way they are cooked... and the seasoning and all... -
