Savor Delectable Hairy Crabs at Silk Road
The Athenee Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok
At last, the much anticipated hairy crab season, roughly coinciding with the ninth and tenth lunar months of the year, is back, at least for a short, mouth-watering spell.
Also known as Chinese mitten crab, hairy crab is one of eastern Chinese cuisine’s most prized delicacies.
The coveted crustaceans, roughly the size of a human palm, can only be caught in river deltas as they briefly migrate from their freshwater habitat to the ocean.
Taking full advantage of the most premium crabs to inspire classic and creative Cantonese cuisine fit to pamper the palates of Silk Road’s faithful customers and curious newcomers, the remarkable Hong Kong Chef Kam and his passionate team are poised to pounce with a set menu and an a la carte menu entirely devoted to the priceless produce.
Hairy crab possibilities were never more varied and tantalizing. Consider the subtle flavors of Stir-fried hairy crab with egg white in taro nest and Steamed hairy crab with Chinese tea leaves, for starters. Or the simple elegance of Hairy crab wonton soup and Fired rice with hairy crab. Not to mention the exquisite indulgence of Braised superior hairy crab in thick soup and Stir- fried Ceylon spinach topped with hairy crab sauce.
The 6-course set menu is priced at THB 3,800++ per person, and prices of the 5-dish a la carte menu start from THB 500++ per dish. All served in Silk Road’s signature high style from Thursday 18 October to Friday 30 November, inclusive.
