Missing the Taste of
Authentic Ca Mau Crab?
Singapore is the global capital of Mud Crab dishes (Chili, Black Pepper). But much of the supply comes from Sri Lanka or Vietnam. By visiting us in Ho Chi Minh City, you get to eat the crabs that were 'too good to export' - the absolute top tier.
Flight Issues
2 Hours flight time stresses the crab, losing up to 40% of meat quality.
Customs Block
Singapore imports huge amounts of crab. Live animals are often seized at Singapore borders.
"We tried sending them, really. But a frozen crab just isn't the same, and a seized crab is a tragedy."

"When you land in Tan Son Nhat (SGN), don't eat hotel food. Come to us."
Eat It At The Source
In Ho Chi Minh City
Since we can't bring the crab to Singapore without losing its soul, we invite you to bring your soul back to Vietnam.
We reserve the largest, freshest Grade 1 Mud Crabs specifically for overseas guests (Viet Kieu) and tourists. No freezing, no preservatives, just pure mangrove goodness.

In Singapore
You have beautiful landscapes (Marina Bay Sands, Merlion), great local seafood, but the crab meat is often sweeter in a 'cold' way, lacking the savory richness of tropical mud crabs.
The Dish You Miss
Tamarind Crab (Cua Rang Me) - While you love Chili Crab, the Vietnamese Tamarind sauce offers a more sour-sweet profile that highlights the crab's natural sweetness.. This is the flavor of childhood, of bustling street corners, of home.
FAQ for Overseas Guests
Is Ca Mau crab bigger than Sri Lankan crab?
They are comparable in size, but Ca Mau crabs are famous for their rich, red roe (gạch son) which is harder to find elsewhere.
Can I pack cooked crab to fly back to Changi?
It depends on the airline, but we recommend eating it fresh here for the best texture.
Do you serve Chili Crab style?
We can! But we suggest trying our 'Rang Me' or 'Rang Muoi' for a uniquely Vietnamese flavor profile.
