Eponymous Labuan Island is actually made up of the main island with six smaller surrounding islands. Therefore, seafood is the staple food here. It is no surprise that at Mr Crab Seafood and Steamboat Restaurant, fresh seafood is the order of the day, whether for lunch or dinner.

During my hosted trip to explore Labuan’s tourism products, one of my meals was at Mr Crab. My fellow delegates and I were served with these dishes, as you can see from the photos, personally prepared by the owner, Chef Firdaus.

After having our appetising meal here, I could surely understand its popularity. It was a meal to remember! Delicious food aside, some people enjoy dining in a restaurant built on stilts by the river.

  1. I have always heard that seafood in East Malaysia is way cheap, even more so for Labuan. The way the black pomfret is cooked and served is very unique. Yumm!

  2. I like this concept where in you will shop for your seafood and fishes alive, and they will cook them for you! That way, we can make sure the foods are good.

  3. Selalu dengar makanan seafood di Labuan ni murah dan fresh-fresh. Bilalah sis dapat merasa nak ke sana. Tengok hidangan di atas tu buatkan tak sabar sis nak ke sana..hehehe
