What Crab Talk offers
Mud Crab is the workhorse of the crab counter. It has the meat and shell strength to handle chilli crab or black pepper, but a good crab is just as satisfying steamed with very little seasoning.
Meat-focused Mud Crab
Chosen for meat yield and suitability for sauce-heavy dishes.
Female Mud Crab
May be available depending on the shipment and condition.
Larger sizes
Suitable for sharing or special meals; reserve early.
Best cooking styles
Mud Crab is especially suitable for chilli crab, black pepper crab, ginger and scallion, steaming and bee hoon. The ideal size depends on the number of diners and whether it is the main dish.
What to check before buying
- Active movement and firm legs.
- Good shell condition and appropriate weight for its size.

Why reserve first
