Casual Crab Dinner Suggestions?

[ckralich]

We are staying in Watersound this week and everyone wants a crab dinner. We have two kids with us (8&9). We are looking for something casual/fun.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Crab cakes at Red Bar? Crab cake apps at Summer Kitchen/Blue by Night? Or do you want to prepare your own crab delight? I love the varaiation on Eggs Benedict that stacks up like this:

Toasted English muffin
ham or bacon (optional)
asparagus, steamed till tender
crabmeat
tomato slice
sweet onion slice
Freshl hollandaise or bearnaise sauce, or homemade mayo with olive oil if you prefer to skip the butter. Storebought/mix hollandaise or mayo would ruin this. Sauce must be made fresh.

Sorta breakfasty, but I would eat this any time of day!

At one point Santa Rosa Beach Club was doing crab dinner specials. Elmo's is a kid friendly place that has crab (are they still open?).

I would call either of them - Elmos is MUCH more kid friendly than the Beach Club.

JamBone gets locally harvested choctawhatchee blue crabs from the wesley's and we serve them every night in a very casual setting.

steamed hot and fresh to order with slaw and corn and taters!!

Nick's in Basin Bayou. The only question is with or without (Old Bay seasoning).

Bayou Bill's has reopend and a great place for the kids.

We ended up at Bayou Bill's in Santa Rosa. Food was good, service not so much. Kids had a lot of fun and everyone got to eat crabs. Thanks for the suggestions.
