Black Pepper Crab

Bliss is being able to enjoy some nice black pepper crab.

Not just any black pepper crab but THE black pepper crab from Eng Seng Restaurant @ 247 Joo Chiat Place.



Before we even reached Eng Seng, just along the main road, the waft of thick black pepper invaded our nose.

Of course I was very excited since I've been craving for black pepper crab like forever (actually it was since my op & the Chinese believed that if you just had an op, you shouldn't eat seafood as they'll be poisonous to your wounds)... All that raving hasn't prepared me for the actually feast.

The black pepper sauce was, I find, not spicy enough because I like them to be extra extra spicy. But the crab was heaven!!! The flesh was soft, succulent and SWEET! Yes, so fresh that it was sweet! It was the very first time where I've tasted such sweet crabs! Not really, you've just got to do down and try it yourself to know what I mean.

I think the best best best part was, it was pretty cheap! We spent around $50+ for two crabs, and a small dish of the salad 油条 which was really worth it! I'll definitely go back there again and again and again and bring my parents there!
