Crab in da bag dinner

Yesterday I had a farewell dinner with my colleagues at crab in da bag restaurant. Yep that's the restaurant name. It has very unique concept of eating and it was so much fun. Love it.

We are doing this farewell dinner for three of us, and I'm one of them. My last day of work is August 6th and then I won't be working til February next year. Woohoo me! Boohoo bank account 😞

Anyway, there was 17 of us in the restaurant. We shared all the food and it was so nice of them to combine the tables together. We were all sitting at one very large table!

The concept. It's ocean or sea themed, so you can expect to see anchor, fishing nets, bouy etc. And they mainly serve seafood. It's really fresh!

The unique thing bout this restaurant is we eat off the table and we use our hands! No cutleries or whatsoever. You literally eat off the table. It's gonna get messy and sticky and greasy but it's soooo much fun.

We were given a bib and thought how to use it. They put a layer of baking paper like material over our table and food is serve on it. No plates no bowls. Baking paper that's it. Here have a look.

   Ugh can't really tell. But anyway, we ordered three pots of fresh seafood!
One titanic pot that serves 6 and 2 gigantic pots that serve 4 each. It's not cheap btw. Titanic pot costs $420 and gigantic pot cost $320. Total bill came up to about $1.6k for 17 pax.

Okay so we ordered that and about 15 mins later the food came. Whenever they serve a big pot, they will ring the bell and say "ahoy" very loudly, we were all so excited because we know the food is coming! Haha

We took quite abit of photos and I will show you   Me in my bib. Super excited!    First pot in

  Well both pot already in. And it's squeezing lemon time. Mal said that's my favourite hobby. Because when we're in Vietnam, all the pics he took of me was when I was squeezing lemon! Alol  Me telling my friend not to mess with me lobster 😂 hangry (hungry + angry) Gan alert

Hot lemon! Ouch!! I literally threw it back on the table and five seconds later, pick it up again and continuing squeezing. Try doing that in a hawker center. yuck!  Oh second pot in now

 And tadaaaa two pots of fresh seafood! The third pot came on at bout 1 hour later. We ordered it last minute.

As you can see there was a lot of different types of seafood. Lobsters, crabs, yabbies, cray fish, mussels, clams, big prawns, squid, and Alaskan King crab leg. All these comes with a few side dish such as corn, potatoes, onion and bratwurst. All boiled with lemon. Hmmmm super good.

 Check out my lobster tail! Super good. Oh here look.  Me and Mr Krabs! Sorry spongebob 😊

Oh it also comes in three different dipping sauce. I love the green chili one. Spicy and sour. Yummy!

And this is the after math. So messy and so fun!

 This is the third pot. Hehe
It's a very cool concept. We don't have to worry bout looking good while we eat or whether you use the right fork for your salad! We all just dig in with out hands 😁

And passing food is so much fun. We literal throw the food across the table. For instance after I peeled the lobster off, my friend from across the table wants part of the meat. I just toss it over like how I would toss a ping pong ball in an arcade game. So cool and kinda rude but who cares. It's okay when you're dining in crab in da bag. Not elsewhere tho.

Another cool part is when I was squeezing the lemon, my hand got burn because of the hot lemon. I just throw it on the table and pick it up again and continue squeezing like nothing happened. Lol.

Another friend of mine is even worse. Her food was too hot for her and she just spit it out on the table and then eat it again hahahaha not spit spit. Just put it back down on the table and eat it again. Lol

Was a great night and it was a great place to do big gathering and dinner. Super cool. RealIy love it!  Great view too. Glass wall that overlook the ocean. Hehe

I would recommend it to everyone but I will tell them it won't be cheap.
