The Seasons of Hairy Crabs

It's another season for hairy crab! This same exact time a year ago I was in this awesome, modern, most populated city, feeling fascinated with the cultures and beauty of the mixture of old and modern city. SHANGHAI, a place I love so much and a place I want to escape from at the same time. Well, now that I'm away, I missed being there. I'm glad I took every opportunities to travel around when I was there.

Hairy crab season started around Oct- Dec every year. Truthfully, I've never tried a hairy crab before. I saw it everywhere in Shanghai and heard that it's so tasty but to enjoy crabs, I prefer sharing with others, so I chose to eat simple food when I was there alone. Thus, I can't really share how wonderful the hair crab is :) It's just the thought, the pictures, the seasons that makes me miss the life in Shanghai.
