Crab avocado salad

We perk up at the sight of fresh crab and bacon. Redemption! And a definite favorite of uber chef Roy Yamaguchi, the servers say — he orders it every time.

We’d tell you how the soft, sweet, real crabmeat melted in our mouth against the salty bursts of bacon, except our friends scarf every bit before we get to it. Was goood, they say. Thanks for leaving us the radish.

Cost: $6.50
Verdict: Yum! (we’re pretty sure)
