House of Crabs

Put your bibs on it's about to get messy! An American style seafood restaurant upstairs the Norfolk Hotel is a real treasure trove for all serious seafood fans. You have to smash, crack, poke, nibble, suck and whole lotta patience to get to the meat but it's well worth the effort. Messy dining at its finest.

 

It was really hard to decide what to get because everything looks so good! We ordered a fair selection and feasted on...

 

lobster fries dripping with lobster sauce, bacon and corn...utterly delicious!

 

Cajun crabs

 

Decent oriental little neck clams...but not as good as their crabs or prawns. Meh for me :(

and more king crabs...(you can never have too much of a good thing!)

and giant juicy QLD prawns

  Spotted their one and only dessert, neapolitan ice cream waffle sandwich on the menu. The choice was clear. Topped with almonds, chocolate and raspberry sauce, it was deliciously moreish!

 

For the ladies if you can drink like a fish, you gotta try their fish bowl cocktails. Literally served in one giant fish bowl.

So if you're looking for a fun place to eat and drink this weekend, I highly recommend House of Crabs. One of the most fun meals I had in Sydney and I'll absolutely be back! ;)
