How hard would it be to get an native English speaker to edit this stuff? It would only take a few minutes.
"coz of"?!? "back and forth"?!? "Lunch with Yang Cheng Crab" - gee I hope the crabs hold up their end of the conversation. A boat ride "in" the lake. A guide will "attend" the trip - they will be a mere attendee then? It will be "more fun" - more than what?
**** off. Honestly. . . Laughable. Amateur. Pathetic. |

These species of crabs aren't as big as some other places (The Singapore's Pepper Crabs are huge), and takes a lot of work to get the meat out of their little bodies, but the taste is great. The crabs are eating in pairs, a male and a female, since they taste different. |

Thanks. Interesting article, but I think just getting out of the city for this trip will make it worthwhile for me. Besides, crabs are high in Cholesterol and bottom feeders so most people realise they aren't the best thing for you. Considering I can SEE the air here where I am living and surrounded by cigarette smoke everywhere...I think I can a couple of crabs. Looking forward to this trip. |
