My fabulous seafood lunch

I recently had this fabulous seafood lunch in a Chinese Restaurant and took some photos for you. Dungeness crab is real treat for me because I don't have it very often. (Largely because you have to cook them live, like lobsters and I am squeamish.) Eating them is a messy job, but I just ask for tongs, extra napkins and it may be part of the fun. Another unlikely dish is eel, but it's really just an elongated fish. It's also used in sushi.

So, are you a crab lover?

Crab Congee (a savoury rice porridge) and Deep Fried Eel (delicious!)

I love seafood, give me crabs, lobsters, oysters. And I love them cooked like in the Chinese restaurant because the fried breaded kind of cooking like at Bubba Gump's, takes away all the taste.

It looks like you had a sumptuous, fabulous lunch!
