If it wasn't for the Boiling Crab in Koreatown, CA, Boiling Crab LV would have received my 5 stars. The two Crabs were complete strangers from a different shore. BC Koreatown's Sha-Bang sauce had more.. Sha-Bang! Twice as flavorful, garlicy, oniony, salty, tasty! BC LV's Sha-Bang was lacking the Bang Bang.. the sauce was bland and watered down. I guess that's what you get from seafood served in the desert. But as I was working through my bag o' shrimp, I started to gain momentum and found myself devouring my 1 pounder and everything left in it. I have developed an acquired taste for BC LV and have dismantled my fanfare for BC Koreatown. BC LV had become my official rebound. If you are dining at BC.. I suggest ordering all three seperate flavors on your choice of crustacean and then try the Sha-Bang just so your options stay open (cuz u know what they say.. "once you go 'Sha-Bang' you'll never go back."). All the fried goods are mighty delish. The fried Catfish and Oysters are always a good side dish.. it changes the game a 'bit for when things get a little too saucy. Never go riceless.. the rice will balance the sodium imbalanced meal. Use the unlimited supply of lime, salt & pepper to increase or decrease your levels of yum.. this ain't no meal for pansies! ..and finally a Quicktip: Forget about washing your hands.. use the leftover lime to degrease, scent and ungrime 'em butterfingers. Did you know: A Crab's teeth are in its stmoach which is also the SAUCIEST!
