About Fatty Crab :: Fatty Crab. Fatty Crab is a restaurant that serves Malaysian inspired cuisine. Malaysia is a peninsular country that dangles just below Thailand in Southeast Asia and borders Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei and The Philippines. The Malaysians use a wide variety of spices, fermented condiments, chilies, and a ton of coconut milk in their cuisine. Over the years there have been distinct Chinese, Portuguese, Indian and Indonesian influences integrated into the cuisine, especially in the urban centers and port cities.
Abundant with curries, spicy and sour fish soups, satay, varied noodle dishes and the ubiquitous nasi lemak, Malaysian cuisine is complex, spicy and really hard to categorize…and the coolest thing is they love to eat with their hands. A practice we at Fatty Crab fully embrace. You will find that we rotate some of our menu items seasonally and run market-inspired specials. Yes, Fatty Crab is a restaurant, but we like to think of it as a joint. Then there’s the crew. Makan, Makan, Makan! Big Fuel. Spirit of 77 - Venue. Congress Austin – Bar Congress.
