The 3rd Annual Crab Fest at Water St Cafe<\/strong> is here! Through August 2, Chef Alan & Team offers a special menu of fresh, tasty BC Dungeness crab dishes to all food lovers in the city.\u00a0\u00a0I was fortunate to come in and try some of these amazing dishes before everyone else!<\/p>\n

The Dishes<\/h3>\n

The Dungeness Crab Salad<\/strong> ($27) is probably the most deluxe version of the classic wedge salad that I have ever seen and tasted. With half of the freshest Dungeness crab, it also features crispy bacon lardons, luscious avocado, crunchy iceberg lettuce wedge, and a bold & tasty buttermilk dressing. Isn’t it incredible to have all of stunning food porn visuals, incredible texture contrast, and maximum flavour on the same plate?<\/p>\n

The Surf & Turf<\/strong> ($48.75)\u00a0 is the perfect marriage of BC Dungeness crab & PEI striploin, 2 of the best ingredients you can find in the country.\u00a0 It also comes with the chef’s signature Cajun fries and salsa verde. This dish has everything you need to indulge yourself.<\/p>\n

The smaller plates were also incredibly tasty.\u00a0 The Crab Avocado<\/strong> ($18.75) impresses with such beautiful flavours from handpicked fresh crab meat, whipped avocado, crispy taro chips, & ponzu glaze. Last but not least, the\u00a0West Coast Crab Cakes<\/strong> ($16.50) with that gorgeous saffron aioli remains the Water St Cafe classic that never disappoints.<\/p>\n

You will also enjoy the newly expanded summer patio at the restaurant, only steps away from the iconic steam clocks and surrounded by beautiful Gastown landmarks. Also not to mention other carefully implemented health and safety measures put in place.<\/p>\n
