Let's Crab Eat Restaurant
Don't you love crabs? Well, I do. I enjoy eating crabs, especially when you can eat-all-you-can. Let's Crab Eat serves crab in two types of sauce: Szechuan and Sate. This resto not only offer crabs, but fish, shrimp, meat, pasta, vegetables, soup, salad, fruits, and sweets, too. The crabs came from a nearby province called Marinduque and they cook about 50-100 kilos of crabs everyday.
Blue Post's Boiling Crabs and Shrimps
With such a culinary pedigree, Blue Post is proud to reinvent the crab and shrimp experience into something more primal and unforgettable. The menu includes boiling fresh seafood in a food grade boiling bag, which is mixed with their original Cajun Special Sauce and some add-ons -- corn on the cob, sausage, and potato. It is then served on the boiling bag. Other dishes diners can expect are kinilaw, grilled seafood, salad, pork garlic belly, burger, steaks, mudslide, halo-halo, and more. They also serve bottomless drinks for their consumers.

Glamour Resto N' Caterer
Craving for crabs? There's a perfect place here in Davao City that would answer your crabby cravings here in Glamour Resto N' Caterer. The unlimited crab was all meat and loaded with fat. It had a mildly spicy, curry-flavored sauce which was delicious. Everyday, 100 kilos of class A mud crabs (alimango) from Cotabato are delivered at the restaurant’s doors. You hate crab clawing as a societal flaw, but in Davao City liberal crab mentality is the delicious kind of schlepping.
