One MICHELIN-starred Duddell’s Hong Kong is celebrating the most anticipated culinary season of the year with the return of its Annual Hairy Crab Promotion, available now until Dec. 19, 2025.
This autumn, Chef Chan Yau Leung pays homage to the prized Jiangsu hairy crab — renowned for its golden roe and delicate sweetness — through a thoughtfully curated tasting menu (HK$1688 + 10% per guest) and a selection of seasonal à la carte specialties.
The Hairy Crab Tasting Menu showcases Chef Chan’s mastery of balance and texture, with highlights including the Xiaolongbao with Hairy Crab Roe, the Steamed Whole Jiangsu Hairy Crab (225g), Steamed Garoupa with Egg and Hairy Crab Roe, Sautéed Prawn with Hairy Crab Roe, Braised Noodles with Hairy Crab Roe in Chicken Soup, with Japanese Sweet Potato Soup with Taro Balls and Ginger Syrup to finish. Guests can also upgrade their experience with a premium 8-tael crab (+HK$300), available in limited quantities daily.
To complement the tasting menu, Duddell’s offers a six-glass wine and sake pairing (HK$888 + 10%), featuring labels such as Bruno Giacosa Sumante Extra Brut 2020, Domaine Pattes Loup Chablis 2021, and Mukai Shuzo Ine Mankai Junmai Genshu, each one chosen to elevate the nuanced layers of the crab’s sweetness and umami.
Seasonal à la carte recommendations include Crispy Chicken Wing stuffed with Imperial Bird’s Nest and Hairy Crab Roe (HK$688/2 pcs), Sautéed Prawn with Hairy Crab Roe (HK$488), Braised Bean Curd with Scallop and Hairy Crab Roe (HK$498), Braised Wuchang Rice with Fish Maw, Conpoy, Hairy Crab Roe, and Chicken Broth in Casserole (HK$988/2 persons).
