The key to a good crab dish lies in the freshness of the ingredients. And at 8 Crabs, the online seafood restaurant promises to use only live catch to prepare its signature dishes. Sri Lankan crabs are wild-caught, air-flown, cooked, then sent straight to your doorstep – all in under 12 hours.
The result: fresher, meatier seafood that comes with a firmer, sweeter bite. Once shipped to the kitchen, each crustacean (from $38.90) is cooked up with various lip-smacking sauces – from classic black pepper and chilli, to novel salted egg and mala. Other highlights include the crab fried rice and bee hoon braised in a housemade crab broth. Complete the zi char feast with some coffee pork ribs, hor fun, curry fish head, and many more.
In fact, 8 Crabs is so confident in the quality of the ingredients used that it offers a one-for-one replacement on any unsatisfactory orders. Got a sudden craving for seafood? 8 Crabs delivers from noon to midnight daily, and even has an express service that will bring the food from its kitchen straight to your table in less than one hour.
