Rare donswife Posted December 17, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 17, 2018 We had outstanding crab legs as a main course one night on our Crown Princess Alaska cruise in 2016. They were big and sawed in half lengthwise so very easy to eat. We each got a pile of them, we were stuffed! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is precooked at the processor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, where do you go/recommend to have a big plate (6-8) of King Crab legs when you cruise Alaska? Or, in your opinion, would you say the King Crab legs aboard ship is of superior quality? What venue?

King As I stated we have not had King Crab offered on our cruises in the DR or Buffet in many years. I have had it at the Crab Shack. Def not superior quality. I will just buy mine from Costco.

seattleslew Posted December 21, 2018 #16 Share Posted December 21, 2018 You will find crab at ANY restaurant in Alaska and it should all be great, but probably not fresh (maybe). I'm not a fan of snow or king crab, though: I'm a Dungeness girl ... always choose that above any other offering if given a choice. Ask. And don't miss out on fish n' chips at ANY restaurant (even a dive) in Alaska, but spring for the often-fresh halibut instead of the cod. Worth the extra $3-$6 ... you won't be sorry.

Coffeeluvr05 Posted December 22, 2018 #17 Share Posted December 22, 2018 We had king crab legs one night in the MDR on the Grand in Sept. on our 10 day Alaska cruise. They served them cut lengthwise so it was so easy to get to me meat! They served them with melted butter as well. It was delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be in heaven. Will be sailing Alaska in May. Can’t wait. King Edited December 22, 2018 by Kingofcool1947 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy your King Crab at Costco, pack them in your luggage, and have them streamed on the ship!🤡 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
