Tonight, we had our second Teppanyaki dinner this year at home with a guest (the first one was Valentine’s dinner). Our guest brought crabs from the fresh market and we had them cooked in black pepper seasoning, and shoved right into the freezer. Here’s a portrait of a couple of great claws after they’re cold enough to dig in~eating them cold the first time was quite an experience in Singapore many years ago and since then, I have only eaten crabs this way!

Best ever [chilli] crab was at Pongol [from 20 year memory] on NE side of Singapore where the man is seen pulling crabs from a barrel live and chopping them up before your eyes

Hi, Jan!
Still in Brunei?
Could you be kind to tell us the name of the crab? Rock crab?
Stunning pic!
Cheers,
Robert-Gilles

Hello Robert-Gilles,
I [am] in Brunei as I usually am. Wanna trade places? To be honest, my love for delicious food has not made me a connoisseur. To make matters worse, these crabs are basically sold according to their sizes where their names aren’t important. I’ll make sure I ask next time.

I doubt I would like to trade places. I know they paly cricket there, but they do have restrictions about alcohol!
Thanks for inquiring!
Take good care of yourself!
Cheers,
RobertGilles
