Back 40 Crab Boil

This little dinner outing deserved a blog on it's own due to the craziness. There is a place just round the corner called Back 40 which has these Tuesday night crab boils. You basically rock up, sit at a table covered in newspaper and they pour buckets of steamed crabs on the table. If you're into crabs then this is the place to be.

Chuck and me sat next to a couple of Aussie's on holidays over here who we bonded with over crab claws and corn. After spending a couple of hours demolishing the crustacean beasts we then headed out for a night cap to a place called Blind Barber. It's a barber shop on E10th in the East Village which has a back door leading into a speakeasy style bar. It was a Tuesday night and the uni crowd were out in force with doof doof a plenty playing.

We probably stayed out for one to many and that mandated the 3am pizza run at the end of the night.







Eating crabs is messy business
