Blue crab 🦀 feast at lunch today (they’re in season this month) at Mee Sum Cafe on Pell St in Manhattan Chinatown, going strong since 1967.
We texted the manager yesterday as you need to order the crab stir fry a day in advance.
It was well worth it – a steal at $25, brimming with cracked sweet super fresh crabs and deliciously aromatic with ground pork, fresh ginger, garlic, scallions, soy sauce & Shaoxing wine. We devoured every last morsel.
We also had pork buns, dried shrimp rice rolls, and a zong… tab was $40 and they were as nice as can be). Cash only!
