Didnt manage to take alot of pictures as our hands were with the chilli crab sauce most of the time.Went for the crab buffet which was a once a year affair here at Ellenborough cafe.Price was about $58+++ per person, which is quite a good deal, considering how expensive crab dishes are in Singapore($38 per kg or more)There were quite alot of items: crab prata, sri lankan mud crab, chilli crab,thai steamed crab,crab salad.There were even desserts such as riceballs/aballing and of course the highl
There were quite alot of items: crab prata, sri lankan mud crab, chilli crab,thai steamed crab,crab salad.There were even desserts such as riceballs/aballing and of course the highly sought after durian penkat(not sure if i spelled correctly), but its like a creamy yet watery durian mousse.The durian penkat is really delicious, it was the only item that i had servings after servings, it was more attractive to me than the crab.The durian mousse is very richly flavoured with real bits of durian meat, its just like you are "drinking" durian with each slurp you gulp down your throat.
The crab tasted normal, some werent too fresh as they were frozen, the meat of some were too hard, if not too soft,as if they have been steamed for a long time.
But they were pretty generous as the crab dishes i expected them not to serve much pincers, but in fact there were plenty.Some pincers were as huge as my face, iam not kidding.
And you could actually request them to chop/smash up the crab pincers for you if its too hard.
I had fun eating crab, i would definitely come back again.
