Crabbing...

My...my...what a fantastic time we had since November 2010. Food fan and I went for crabbing crazily. I felt like we ate crabs for almost every week and we did enjoy the quest.

It started when Food fan has this craving for crabs and we went to Seaworld Neptune restaurant at Kampung Jerudong next to the fish market. Besides Seaworld Neptune, we went to Mei Wee restaurant at Yayasan SHHB at the capital as well for crabs but on different days. These 2 restaurants offer fresh seafoods from the aquariums, ranging from shellfish to lobsters.

I will made it straight to the points on these 2 places;

Seaworld Neptune:

1) It is clean, average service, quite nice ambience but quite pricey,
2) Its salted egg crabs dish is the best as compared to other style of cooking such as butter crabs or chilli crab.

Mei Wee:

1) Cheaper as compared to Seaworld Neptune, for example the local crabs are half price lower than in Seaworld Neptune, average service as well but in terms of cleanliness is a bit of issue to us at the beginning but has improved gradually.
2) Their butter crabs is the best, we have tried the salted egg crabs but it can't beat Seaworld Neptune.

To crab lovers, if you never try deep sea crab, we highly recommended you to try it. The sweetness of the crab meat is different from the local ones and in terms of the price, it is slightly expensive. Have a go at Mei Wee restaurant for a trial.
