KING OF CRAB LEGS
In his last exciting foray into Alaska's expansive and icy waters, where the air temperature is a mere 24 degrees on a mid August afternoon, Chef Mychael Bonner came across a new species of Alaskan King Crab.This species specifically, had not been harvested since 1992. Hailing from St. Matthews Island, just off Alaska's Northwest coast, this crab stands apart from the rest of the ocean waters. Its noteworthy taste is very sweet, succulent, and deliciously tender. As a personal favorite of Executive Chef Mychael, he carefully and expertly prepares this Alaskan King crab so you can enjoy this pleasurable treat without experiencing the artic Alaskan cold!
No need for a bib, our chefs do an excellent job of splitting the legs, so it is easy to get the meat. Our Alaskan King Crab Legs are served piping hot with drawn butter, or served ice cold with our signature mustard sauce. With both preparations, enjoy fresh corn on the cob, boiled red potatoes, and cole slaw for $29.95.
