Succulent King Crab at Captain George’s
They certainly know how to do king crab in South Carolina! Captain George’s Seafood Restaurant in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has an amazing buffet of king crab legs that keeps on coming. Their buffet is pretty extensive so you need to stay focused and remember why you are there! The king crab legs are so big that it is difficult to maneuver the tongs to grab the legs and place them onto your plate. Once you get them piled onto your plate then you need to balance this antler like stack so you don’t drop them all over the floor. Knowing that once you make it back to your table you have this succulent meat to pull out of these crustaceans keeps you walking slow and steady. The king crab legs are really sweet and meaty and when you dunk them into the warm butter it just gets even better!
King crab or stone crab are a super-family of crab-like crustaceans which are generally found in cold seas. Considering king crab goes for over $30.00 a pound at most seafood markets finding a place like Captain George’s where it’s one of their specialties dishes is definitely a good thing. Not only is the crab worth going for but the centerpiece ship display and starry night sky graphics in quite impressive. If you like seafood you may just like to try my Asian shrimp and rice noodle salad, Asian salmon, mussels in a fennel-lemongrass sauce, shrimp and scallop chowder with coconut cream, sea scallop cerviche, or my sea bass with green goddess sauce. On the lighter side you could always go for my fish appetizers consisting of baked coconut shrimp, smoked salmon with a cream cheese-caper spread on crostinis, clam puffs, or sea scallops wrapped in bacon.
