a hairy experience...

its my sister's birthday today and as usual, we celebrate with a good meal!


as mom has to work in the afternoon, we had to take early lunch, and decided to go tung lok at vivo city... instead of our usual dim sum, we decided to try the seasonal hairy crabs from jiangsu! this will be my first hairy crab experience! amongst the 4 of us, only the birthday gal had tried it in shanghai before... so we decided to go for it!!

4 hairy crabs arrived on our table...

all ready to be eaten by moi!

nothing left but a plate of shells

love the roe... thats the reason to eat hairy crabs, not the meat... but it is tiring to eat the crab... the meat has to be dug out etc... it was a good experience... at least i finally tried it once! haha... my biggest bill at tung lok so far... $316 for 4 pax! my birthday treat for my sister... so hope my sis enjoyed the meal!
