Do you like seafood?! Cause I do! Seafood is my weakness and an awesome place to get some is a spot called the Boiling Crab. The food there is consistently fresh and the prices are awesome. Okay so here’s how it works, you choose the type of seafood you want to eat; they’ve got crabs galore, shrimp, crawfish, clams, and oysters. Then you decide just how hungry you are because you order by the pound. Seasoning comes next. My personal favorite is the Rajun Cajun but if that doesn’t tickle your fancy they’ve also got lemon pepper and garlic butter. For you indecisive folks go for the whole sha-bang. Minutes after your order goes in, a server will come by your table carrying a metal bucket… yes a bucket. He or she will pull out of said bucket a clear plastic bag filled with whatever you ordered and plop it down onto your wax paper covered table. Break open the bag and have at it. Watch out for the steam though! By the way, they don’t do utensils. If you aren’t into getting messy they also offer tamer dishes like seafood gumbo over rice (fork included) or regular old fish and chips. Bomb fish and chips! Five fillets of fresh catfish and a side of Cajun fries that’ll only set you back $8. The atmosphere is chill, plenty of flat screen t.v.’s mounted on the walls broadcasting any sporting events taking place at the moment and despite the high volume of customers the staff is always friendly and attentive. The one problem about Boiling Crab though is despite having five or six locations; the closest one is in Alhambra. But if you happen to be going in that direction, or are down for the drive, definitely hit it up. Bring some friends, throw on your bib, roll up your sleeves and dig in! Oh, and bring a sharpie..
