crab

[gta1216]

is there any chinese restaurant in gta that sells "yellow oil crab" and "big 'jop' crab?" what month is the "in" season for it?

Probably not in the area you're looking for, but have you tried Fantasy Eatery by Midland and Finch? They have a ton of ways of making crab.. not sure if the ones you specified are available, but maybe worth a try.

No restaurant serves big jop crab, cuz it's ban from import into Canada. Unless you can find some one underground.

i dont think either are available outside asia...and i dont know what "big 'jop' crab" is....but the yellow oil crab -- while it is a delicacy....doesn't it imply the crab is super super ill?

the method of making them unaturally is cruel as well imo

Big "jop" crab is 大閘蟹
They are in season during October. I think I've seen frozen ones at T&T during October. As someone else said, they're considered pests here, so I doubt you'll find live ones here.

The article above indicates that San Francisco Bay is a good place to find live ones.

little off topic - I would like to have "pee pee" shrimps (for lack of better words)... but cannot find them in NA.
