Yum! I have never had Sri Lankan crab. How does that compare to other types?

Return to Barney’s gourmet burgers, Sf
carolina chicken sandwich
steak fries
truffle fries
iced tea
first time there since February or March 2020 and the server remembered that we like malt vinegar with our steak fries.
my Carolina chicken was too huge. I removed 1/3 of the chicken and half the bacon. My spouse ended up eating my eschewed chicken and I just left the bacon behind because I can’t imagine how or when I’d eat that leftover bacon.
pandemic 2021 - zero ketchup bottle, only the small cup of ketchup.

Taste wise is it closer to Maryland crab than Alaskan?
I am a fan of both but prefer Alaskan. You know me I also love a good SIngapore black pepper crab!

The top photo is the soup the noodles are supposed to be in . The noodles soak up all the goodness & become soft ( these type are not meant to be el dente ) and taste wonderful .. They are served in them at our friend ‘ s home , the violinist & home chef .
Crab “ soup “

as I said during deep Shelter in Place 2020, a Barney’s burger meal averages $25-30pp for a burger-type meal; nothing gourmet or near Michelin. Definitely not cheap.

Had my first copper river salmon of the year. Pan seared till medium rare with salt and pepper and light lemon. As good as I remembered, and thanks, AMEX, for taking $15 off because the fishmonger was classified as a restaurant.
