  • Staying with a friend in Portland this week and just got back from dinner at the Crab House Cafe. Bit 'fusion' as venues go. And by fusion I mean theyve got the colour palette of Bodeans with some Gormley style giant metal squid in the ceiling. But the food was really superb. Radishes and salt, then oysters, then mussels in cream and wine (astonishing) then a whole (enormous) crab in a kind of chilli, ginger and something dressing. Exhausting to dress and my fingers are a wreck but by the time I'd extracted every gram of meat I had a mound in front of me the size of my son's head. Fucking lovely. Well worth a visit if you're into good fish in Dorset but don't quite fancy Hix prices (if you can get a good table btw that place is astonishing and worth every penny). (Oddly Hix did the forward for the crab shack book).

  • Absolutely love this place - my in laws live nearby, it’s the go to for celebrations. If anyone is close by I’d highly recommend popping in, even just for a takeaway dressed crab.
