On our smelly journey through the fish stalls we stopped to check out some crabs. Apart from the regular mud crabs, we spotted blue ones, said to be meatier and better suited for dishes with subtle flavours, according to Chef. While signs for fresh crabs include a hard shell and lack of smell, Xerxes stresses on checking the eyes. White eyes are a complete no-no! Want to try a crab dish by the ace chef? Try the Chilli Sambal Crab with Coconut Rice {prepared with mud crabs}, next time you’re at Red Fork.
