Nope, no soft-shelled crabs for me. I tried it once. Yuck!
I was in N.O. and had dinner at Kakoo and Ralph's. Got the
crab dinner - crab prepared about 7 or 8 different ways. (Well,
at least 5 or 6 different ways.) One of which was soft-shelled
crab. That was one of the most awesome meals I ever had except
for the soft-shelled crab. I tend to freak out when I use canned
crab and I can't find every single little speck of shell. Imagine
eat one with the *whole* shell on it! No way, Jose.
