chili crab and other yum yums


CHILI CRAB AND OTHER YUM YUMS. Basically the biggest fatso feast on earth. Joo San, Sabrina's local buddy, took us out to a huge food court to try one of Singapore's national dishes, chili crab, but it didn't stop just there. Rice, veggies, white pepper crab, stingray (!!!), dumpling-look-alike-thingies, ice kachang (100% not to my liking) and a very inappropriate looking fried banana (feels even more inappropriate to admit that it tastes amazing). Exclamation mark behind stingray is to highlight my amazement that I actually enjoyed it, probably because the spicyness overtoned any possible fishiness. Chili crab was amazing and so was white pepper crab, although it is always awkward to see your dinner jumping around alive in a cage prior to consumption. Sabrina and I thought we should dig in local style, so we were pulling and picking every little piece of crab we could get out of the shell with our hands and mouths (obese moment). I felt slightly ashamed when I looked over to Joo San, who ate her crab without using her hands even once...
