I tend to try out a lot of new restaurants with my friend Julie.  She should really be writing her own blog!

Anyway, we went for girls' night out, and it happened to still be hairy crab season.

Having learned our lesson with the male/female crab difference, we ordered male crabs this time.  So yummy.

This is a great restaurant for having a long catch-up.  The staff were so friendly and helpful (when they saw us struggling to cut the crabs, they came over and did it for us.  We had to stop them from extracting all the meat for us!).  The wine was decent - we had a nice sauvignon blanc to go with our highly seafood-weighted meal.  And we were the very last people to leave...with no pressure from the staff for us to go - we just had to pay the bill and then we were left to enjoy the rest of our wine and conversation until we were ready to leave.

The location is also conducive for post-dinner drinks, as it is in a central location in Wan Chai.  We, however, were a little sloshed after a bottle of wine (and pre-dinner drinks), so we made our merry ways back home.  A great night, overall.
