The Boiling Crab

SHRIMP + CRAW FISH

This is one heck of an experience! We drove for almost 40 minutes and when we got there, we needed to wait for another 2 hours just to get in. We were debating if we would just take the food out and eat at home but we would still wait so we just decided to wait. Good thing Target was around the corner so we spent an hour strolling in there and the other hour outside the restaurant waiting in the cold (or probably not since we squished ourselves inside despite the huge line) for a table. When Ate Arlene's name was called, it was like we hit the jackpot - shouting and raising our hands because we got a table FINALLY!

BEFORE

AFTER

Everything was new to me and Emil. There were no plates ready, only a disposable table cloth in front of us. The lemons were placed on the table. In my mind I was already panicking because there were no protection from any harmful germs. lol Finally the server came with a pail and then pulled out Ate Arlene and Kuya Nino's shrimp and craw fish in two separate plastic bags. I was still wondering where the plates and utensils are when they told me that we're gonna eat with our hands out of the plastic. Not that I don't use my hands to eat because we do that all the time in the Philippines but I was just lazy to wash my hands that's why I avoid this kind of circumstance. I have no choice but to do it so when my order of snow crab legs came,  just dug it out of the plastic and attacked it! I didn't really eat crab in the Philippines and because it was FREE, of course I would eat it this time. I realized that it is indeed a great food. :)

SWEET POTATO FRIES

We also had sweet potato fries which surprisingly I liked (I don't eat sweet potato until this time). Emil, of course was very happy with his dungeness crab. He ate the entire thing by himself but why am I not surprised?

This was a great experience for us and to top it off, it was free. We went there on a Saturday and the next day in sacrament meeting, I told Emil that I was actually thinking of the crab I ate the other night and said he was too! Na sobrahan yata kami sa experience na to!
