As a Queenslander (in Australia), I've grown up eating mud crab. It is the most beautiful meat, especially if boiled in the shell in salt water and eaten either straight away or after cooling it down. Try cold mud crab on fresh bread with real butter and some salt and pepper. Oh yeah...

I've never eaten mud crab, having grown up near Melbourne. We used to eat abalone, southern rock lobster and Aussie king crab (Tasmanian crab). We also get Portland bay bugs (smaller cousin of Morton bay bugs.) Pretty spectacular country to live for that kind of thing, even down south.

How is the sustainability of mud crab? I've never eaten them but I'm in favor of making sure tasty things never die out.
this show is my antidepressant. im not even kidding
I have been to Singapore 4 times, they have so many ethic cultures living in that small island. Very beautiful tropical island, always enjoy your videos & your bravery to try any & every culture cuisine.
I LOVE how Sonny is always so honest with his reviews he doesn’t sugarcoat if somethings good or not. As a Singaporean honestly all these crab gravy dishes (chilli/black pepper) is more of a “marketed” classic dish for tourism not rly something everyday Singaporeans eat quite overhyped actually. Hope you try Malay and Indian cuisines (Head to Geylang or Little India!!) while you’re here too Sonny they’re just as sedapppp!!!!
Me: * eating a dry bologna sandwich watching Sunny eat crab * "oh how I wish" 🥺😭🤣 but seriously, looks absolutely delicious 😋

@O.G Autistler i get it. I read it the first time. I dont believe in critical race theory. I do get the irony. But i dont champion or tag people to try to get my point across. Thats what leaves a bad taste in peoples mouths on both sides of the fence. This was not a political conversation. It was about drooling over these delish crab legs. Not even people with money are getting that kind of crab to their tables. It's a part of Singapore's local palate.

I lived in Singapore many years ago and when I went back to visit, made sure to have chilli crab again. Wonderful. I had the best satay there too, and the best Teppanyaki, although that is of course Japanese!
In the 80s I cooked in a Steakhouse in Tucson (good one). We served King Crab, the legs were about 1lb each. Back then it was 2 legs per order for $28... We just steamed it and served with drawn Lemon Butter... We used to toss in an extra leg occasionally when we got an order... they were VERY lax with inventory. Alaskan King Crab is the single best food I've ever eaten, bar none.
This is making me crave for seafood. That looks so good 😊

If you haven't had Singapore chili crab, you should seek it out. I was lucky to find it at Tiger Fork restaurant in D.C during Covid. Easily in my top 10 meals of all time. 🦀🦀
Yes, there is ketchup in there. The second 'special sauce' that you see getting ladled into the soup is ketchup! Also, for the mud crab, that was an interesting choice to give you a male crab - the females will have a cakey, yellow roe that is the food of the freaking gods.

Singaporeans love their seasonings and strong, hearty flavours xD I'm a huge fan of chilli crab myself, but agree that the sauces overshadow the natural flavours of the crab. If you haven't done so yet, definitely recommend a chicken rice spree in Singapore! It's beloved by many, almost making it a national favourite, and captures both the flavours of the meat and seasonings.

I'm with you... crab is best enjoyed with minimal seasonings. I had a crab curry once at an Indian restaurant; the curry itself was delicious, but the meat could've been many different seafoods stuffed in a crab shell. King crab/snow crab has an AMAZING naturally sweet flavor you can't really find in anything else. To cover that up, especially for the price you pay, would be a shame.
