Soft-shell crab is an all-pervading feature in KL – whether fried and topped on salads, or stirred into creamy pasta, you’re bound to encounter soft shell crab upon the mere flip of a café menu. At Jibby & Co, soft-shell crab is battered and fried (all legs and body) before sandwiched between two fluffy brioche buns. It’s a deeply delicious ensemble, enhanced by globs of creamy coleslaw and spicy mayo. The hand-cut sweet potato fries on the side are textbook perfect – crisp and firm on the outside, and bursting with sweetness on the inside.
