Soft Shell Crabs Are Back!

photo (10)These active little guys were delivered this morning, marking the beginning of Soft Shell Crab season!  We here at Mr. Friendly’s LOVE these crabs, serving them at both lunch and dinner whenever they’re available.

At lunch you can expect to see them Buttermilk Fried, and served on a toasted baguette Po’ Boy style, or on top of a garden fresh salad.  At dinner, enjoy them as an appetizer or entree, typically served with our creamy stone-ground grits.

Keep in mind, these crabs won’t necessarily be available every day!  We get them as often as humanly possible, but make sure to check out our “Food & Spirits” page to see a complete list of our daily specials and keep up with us on Facebook to see if the latest shipment has arrived!
