This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was still very good. I would recommend using less salt next time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll try making it again with less chili peppers next time.

The crab was a bit overcooked, but the garlic sauce was delicious. I'll try again next time and cook the crab for a shorter amount of time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of garlic, but I'm so glad I did! The garlic sauce was not overpowering at all, and it really brought out the flavor of the crab. Will definitely make this again.
