If you want alaskan king crab, only lemon garden and pullman got. The taste of the crab in lemon garden is too salty for my taste (maybe they put in salt water), but they restock quite often and presentation looks good. Pullman's crab tastes much better to me (naturally sweet), but doesn't restock that often, size not as big as lemon garden, and presentation not as nice. Sheraton does not have alaskan king crab, only got mud crab.

Lemon garden and sheraton got lobster, but not pullman. Lemon garden's got boston lobster, but again its salty like the crab. Sheraton's got slipper lobster.

I tried Alaskan crab before. nothing special but my GF wanted to try them so might as well go for a buffet for her to try all stuffs like lobsters and etcs. For the price of 236x2 (472), I might as well book a Chinese restaurant set for 2.

Im mot sure about chinese restaurant prices, iirc they were about 500-600 per crab, but if you do have some cheaper choices do let me know.

The problem with spider crabs in Malaysia is that its frozen, so you get that frozen seafood taste, then they boil it in salt water or something. The fresh ones are really good, which i think chinese restaurants might be a better choice as it comes from a tank.

I think its normal. but I don't like buffet cuz all they do is just boil/steam and chill it. unlike Chinese restaurants.

Normally I would avoid buffets. Can get a very nice meal for the same price. the only advantage is variety. and that's what I wanna offer to my gf bangwall.gif

I dislike seafood.

Plenty of seafood there but I didn't even try 'em.

I remember seeing one big octopus ready to be served. The waiter was chopping into small pieces for everyone.

alaskan crab normally they cook it by salt water then only deep freeze it, when wanna serve then only take out.

For me i prefer mud crab, 2 persons can easily order few crab already

Ok la, spider crab whole ekor about that price, I think snow crab is a little cheaper. Haven’t ate snow crab for a couple of years.

Usually ask the captain to cut it to half and cook two diff sauce per crab
