Crab Liver Pâté, made from delicately extracted crab liver, gives a rich and savoury flavour. This unique delicacy, known as crab butter or crab fat, accounts for just 1% of the live crab's weight. Spread it on Melba Toast and add a drop of Kitul Treacle to add a smoky sweetness to this dish. Due to its limited availability, we highly recommend securing this exclusive treat by making an advance reservation. Email us at [email protected] to make a reservation.
