Are you looking to treat your loved ones to a fantastic meal with crabs at the comfort of your home? If you are, then look no further than 8 Crabs, an award-winning crab and seafood delivery service in Singapore. As a wholesaler and retailer, 8 Crabs has their own supply of crabs which gives them the capacity to ensure that their customers get the freshest crabs in every order. They also guarantee that your crabs are kept fresh and alive till they are cooked and will be delivered to you within an hour.
Scrolling through the menu, we observed that they only offer a few flavours for the crabs. Instead of serving a wide variety of flavours like most other places, they focus on the classic ones such as chilli, black pepper and salted egg. They also have many other zi char dishes, all reasonably priced according to the different portion sizes.
In our case, we placed our order a day in advance. The ordering process was fuss-free and our enquiries were met with prompt replies through the live chat on their website. Our food was also delivered to our doorstep on time and they were all well-packed in boxes and containers.
Verdict
For our meal, we ordered 2 Extra Large Chilli Crabs along with some other side dishes available on their site. We love how generous they were with the sauce, which went very well with white rice. The consistency of the sauce was just right; it was neither too watery nor too thick with corn starch. This makes it great for dipping your mantou /buns in. If you are keen on having their biggest XXL-sized crab, we advise you to place your order 2-3 days in advance as they tend to get out of stock very quickly.
If you are interested in buying crabs to do your own cooking, they are also available for purchase on their website.

I love the idea of an at-home date night, especially now! I decided to buy king crab. Definitely had to do a bit of research on crab prep, though. This site helped: https://qualityseafooddelivery.com/crab/
