Bite me: Local celebrities who love hairy crabs include violinist Daniel Lau (left) and actor-model Alan Yun.


Especially for you: Dragon-i chief executive officer Henry Yip flanked by his Cantonese cuisine chef Yim Yu King (left) and Shanghainese cuisine chef Man Fong Lam who created the special hairy crab menus.


Egg with kick: For seasoned hairy crabs eaters, the orange-coloured roe is the thing to savour.

Part of a Suzhou style banquet that includes steamed hairy crabs (not in the picture). In the middle is a plate of crunchingly fresh dates.


Strings of delight: The straws that bind the hairy crabs impart a pleasant and fresh herbal flavour to the tasty crustaceans.

I’m sure that I would enjoy these dishes, it all sounds interesting, but I would rather they not call them “hairy” crab.

Putting a shell on things is Gods way of telling you there is something tasty inside.

OK, I gotta ask. Why do people want to eat a underwater spider? “Tastes good” ain’t good enough. (now I prepare for the incoming artillery)

“Whew! I thought you were talking about the “other” kind of crabs.”

Tasteless jokes just sorta write themselves on this thread, no?

According to NJ fishing rules, if you catch one of these Mitten Crabs, DO NOT throw them back in. They are considered an invasive species in our waters.
