Singaporean Chili Crab
For one night only, Starry Kitchen will prepare their signature Singaporean Chili Crab, along with their famous garlic noodles and other tasty side dishes.
“We’re excited to partner again with JACCC,” said Nguyen Tran, owner of Starry Kitchen. “Right now, our Singaporean Chili Crab is only available at JACCC’s CrabFest. If you want it or never had it before and always wanted to try it, you must come out to JACCC’s all-you-can-eat crab feast.”
Proceeds from the event will go toward providing free concerts and festivals on JACCC’s plaza throughout the year.
“By bringing back a local favorite, we create community through a shared love of good food, while at the same time providing support for JACCC,” said Leslie A. Ito, President & CEO of JACCC. “CrabFest is absolutely the most fun and delicious event, especially when you’re working with Nguyen and Starry Kitchen, the King of Chili Crab.”
