CRAFTY CRAB – Seafood
North Monroe Street, and the smell of garlic butter reaches you before the door does. This is a Cajun boil house: you pick your seafood by the pound, you pick a seasoning, then you pick how much heat you can stand. Snow crab legs, king crab, lobster tail, crawfish, mussels, clams and shrimp all go into the bag with corn on the cob and potatoes. Choose between Crafty Cajun, buttery garlic or lemon pepper, or combine everything into The Boom. Fried catfish, tilapia and calamari baskets, raw and steamed oysters, hush puppies, house salads and cheesecake all round it out.
