Crab King is located at 632 YLAC avenue, Barangay Villamonte. The place is extremely tiny. One room with three tables and a kitchen area. The only decorations are posters from liquor companies and a menu proudly proclaiming CRAB RICE WALA ( nothing left)
Despite the dingy decor, crowds of people jostle for table space. If you’re unfortunate enough – the first customers have bought all of the crabs and there will be none left!
