Fri May 22 06:37:06 -0700 2009 84710 BRI328 1 4706103 I haven't checked yet this season, but Dimitri's usually has them (and they are excellent!) Fri May 22 06:46:15 -0700 2009 4706078 76938 Bigley9 1 4706147 I like the soft shells at Yang Ming, in Bryn Mawr. (I also like their Caesar Salad appetizer with Asian pears and chicken - an unusual combination, but very good.)

Fri May 22 07:44:23 -0700 2009 4706078 291787 purplesachi 2 4706521 I just read their tasting menu online... WOW! looks wonderful...sorry I missed it.

They also have them at Anastasi's at the Italian Market. Fri May 22 11:42:10 -0700 2009 4706392 12572 bluehensfan 3 4718787 Not laughing! Had a soft shell sandwich from Under the C today - delish!

I haven't tried them; we keep getting oysters there (both fresh and fried) and enjoying them. But I did see them on the menu.

Sat May 23 07:23:21 -0700 2009 4706078 208053 berbadeerface 1 4714879 Had the softshell sandwich at Standard Tap on Friday. Perfectly fried and delicious! Tue May 26 06:57:07 -0700 2009 4706078 228042 sadiefox 1 4718468 the softshells at standard tap are delicious. personally though, when i am craving softshells i go to shiao lan kung. they serve them deep fried but they are beyond amazing. Wed May 27 08:19:57 -0700 2009 4706078 14941 mazza3 1 4718942 Nam Phoung does a salt crusted soft shell crab with a lime pepper dipping sauce. They are very tasty, but I do not think they are blue crabs. They are cut into smaller pieces when they are served, so I can't really give any more info to try to identify them. But, they are good!
