The crab was packed with meat, so delicious! Each dish had its own unique flavor, and you even got a little hammer to tap and crack open the crab meat while eating. The crab was very fresh, with chunks of meat.

This place made us miss the fresh claypot crab rice taste. Even the taste can be a little salty to our taste bud due to its general amount of dried shrimp. Overall taste really good! Glad we found this place.

Jia Hiang serves delicious claypot crab rice. We have been here a few times and the taste is still as good. I'd describe it as a quaint neighborhood restaurant serving lovely home-cooked style food.

Inside the crab claypot rice has small dried shrimp, salted fish, and roasted pork. The crab is very fresh, but the rice is not that fragrance as my expectation. Feel thirsty at night after dinner.
