Crab Set Go - Hearty Good Food

Enjoying crabs in a frills-free, chilled environment sounds like a great idea to me since it means more wallet-friendly bills while enjoying this delicious premium crustacean. And I found such place in the name of Crab Set Go, set in the quiet, somewhat historic building of 2 Havelock.

The price of the crabs is so affordable that I want to immediately order some without even feeling a pinch on my wallet. But since I have something on later and was with someone, I go for the other faster options available from the menu. There are soft-shell crabs dishes, for some briny goodness of crab at super affordable prices, American style appetizers, various pasta dishes and grilled dishes.

The food here is very flavourful and hearty, especially the Grilled Sakura Pork. I’m so surprised a humble-looking restaurant in a super humble-looking building can serve such awesome grilled food.

And given the nice homely service here, I’m definitely be back to try the main star here: the crabs!

Grilled Sakura Pork is so juicy and tender, with an iota of firmness for a good bite. The slightly charred exterior juxtaposing with the juicy core makes me go, “Excellent texture!” The taste is great too, being packed with flavours. A must-order here.


Tom Yum Soft-Shell Crab Pasta is unique, in a good way, where it actually tastes refreshing and creamy at the same time. The aroma of lemongrass, the zest and the slight spiciness lift up the creaminess of pasta. Soft-shell crab is soufflé-crispy and briny sweet, going well with the pasta.


Crispy Onion Rings, with the light lovely pungency of onions, go so well with the cheese sauce.

Thoughts: A Good Place to enjoy Good Hearty Meals at a Good Price
