Absolutely incredible! The chili crab tasted just like what I had in Singapore. The sauce was perfect - spicy but not overwhelming, and the crab was so fresh. Will definitely order again!

The best chili crab I've had outside of a restaurant. The portion was generous and the mantou buns were perfect for soaking up that amazing sauce. Well worth the price!
