8 Crabs' Award-winning Salted Egg Yolk Crab did not disappoint! The meat was fresh and firm, much meatier than the usual Sri Lankan crabs I had tried before. No hollow space between the shell and meat, it's firmly packed, even on its leg too! I felt the difference because I would normally try to "crack" the shell of the legs by mouth but I tell you, this is one tough crabbie! Just look at the huge, meaty pincer next!

Let me share something about crabs. Do you know that crabs naturally travel about 500m every night and prefer to live alone? Crab farmers breed many crabs in a confined space in order to be profitable and the confined space caused the crabs to get stressed easily in captivity as many farms could not replicate their natural habitat which is the wild. As a result, crabs produce ammonia, which is a sign of decomposition of seafood and is usually covered up highly fragrant gravies.
This also explains why the carbs from 8crabs are fresher, tastier and meatier as the crabs are caught in the wild and air-flown over! It was well cooked and the meat did not stick to the shell at all! You will feel like getting some mantous to just wipe the bowl of gravy clean! Totally CRABILICIOUS!
Vera was for sure helping herself to the huge claw confidently without any help from us! Trust me that the crab was really good! Going to order and deliver over to Mom-in-law for this coming Mother's Day!
This curry fish head is sure to tantalize your taste buds. Topped with plentiful of lady-fingers, soaked in a generous amount of curry.
I find it too spicy for me but it was really shiok lah whilst my mom and Don said it was not too spicy for them. It was so good that my mom had to get two slices of bread and dipped into the curry after the whole fish head had been wiped out.
This signature prawn roll was a hit as well, very much welcomed by the kids! Just Vera alone, she ate about half the portion of the dish. It was even nicer to go with the sweet sauce! It arrived at my place warm and nice, it was not soggy from the delivery, for the paper box that was used to pack the prawn rolls had openings to allow the hot air to escape.

Lastly, Claypot Beancurd was cooked with a variety of vegetables in it. This pot was wiped out completely with the gravy gone as well. The taste of the gravy was just nice, not too saltish and was pretty light and well balanced.
