The Morrison's Crab Carnival 2015
Face off in a crab eating contest against chef Sean Connolly during The Morrison's month-long crustacean celebration.
Overview
Did you know that crabs' teeth are located in their stomach? Better brush up on your crab trivia in preparation for the Morrison Bar & Oyster Room's second annual Crab Carnival, a month-long complement to August's Oyster Festival. Enjoy the festivities while sipping on crab-inspired cocktails and munching on crab menu specials — including $5 crab tacos from 6 - 7pm daily. For a real treat, try the chilli mud crab at market prices or the the soft shell crab burger with green goddess dressing.
What would a carnival be without the games? Thursday April 2 and 16, the Morrison will hold hermit crab races at 7pm. If you're more in the market for eating crab, face off against the chefs in their crab eating contest, which will be held on Tuesday, April 7, at 7pm. The entry fee is $20 and all profits from the contest will go to the SeaLife Conservation Fund.
Spaces will fill up fast for the crab racing and crab eating contests, so make sure to get there early.
