A word or two about the crab mystery. My brother and I lived in LA for a few years, and we found that Louisianians have a firm belief that no one in any other part of the country (maybe the world?) knows anything about cooking. Imagine telling to Marylanders that you can't steam crabs. Old Bay? What's that? This is what we got for 2 years. We were told you just have to boil them like you'd do crawfish. But, my brother tells me, just last year some LA friends of his had "discovered" steaming crabs. They were quite pleased with themselves...a new LA delicacy. There was even talk of putting together a spicing package for steaming crabs. Hmmmm.... No ideas about where the crabs were on your visit. I'm a mudbug fan myself. - Jennifer
