Crazy for Crabs?


Are you one of those crab-o'holics? Then this resto is probably what you're looking for. The idea came out from my friend V's insistent demand for us to try out this resto. V is allergic to crabs but this didn't hinder her from craving for crabs. Crazy Crab at Gaisano Countrymall, Banilad has already become popular in Cebu through word-of-mouth, Facebook, and Instagram posts.


We got there during dinner time at around 6:30pm and there were only two other tables being occupied. We didn't thought it would be full as time progresses and more and more diners came along with most of which are Koreans - bet they love crabs as well :).

We had the garlic crab P190(bestseller), hot and spicy crab P170(crab meals include a serving of rice) and Korean noodles P80. The main dish itself may be a little pricey but the best part is that rice and beverages are both priced @ P15, relatively cheap. Crab size is reasonable enough for its price.

Garlic crab - P190
Hot and spicy crab - P170
Korean noodles - P80
My favorite of the two crab choices is the garlic crab. The garlic bits are very crunchy and it compliments well with the crab, giving it utmost flavor and aroma. We even munched-out the garlic bits because its very delicious. The hot and spicy one is just okay - not that exceptional. Though I liked the kick of spiciness which is just enough for my palate. On the other hand, good thing we ordered Korean noodles as it gives life to our "somewhat" dry meal, it has a good kick of spiciness too.


Would I visit Crazy Crab again? Definitely Yes! I loved the garlic crabs and the affordable prices. Imagine only paying P530 for 3 persons, sounds a great deal for crabs, 'ei? :D
