(41,818 posts)80. I wish I could get King or Snow Crab here in the City..
I have seen frozen Snow Crab legs on the shelf, but it does not interest me. You know, there was a time in this city you could even
have a whole lobster. Not any more. Lobster tails only. I also love steamed clams. The local Japanese restaurant used to make those, but they have stopped. They said they refuse to order them now... and have never given me a reason. I guess if I want that, I have to go down to Fisherman's Wharf and find a place, but of course...its a tourists trap, which means very high prices. The Dungeness crab I have delivered to me locally, by a Chinese place is at least 5 to 9 dollars cheaper than priced at Fisherman's Wharf.
Something is happening to our Seafood, its becoming non available all year round.

I believe the past fights were over reasons why the poor often don't cook from scratch.

Do sandwiches count as "cooking"? How about raw food? Is the question eat out or not or what?
