Best Crawfish: Phat Eatery

In a city flush with incredible crawfish boils (especially during the season), it’s kind of hard to stand out; but this Katy Asian Town wonder manages to do just that. Chef-owner Alex Au-Yeung’s cult favorite Malaysian Curry Crawfish is a true Mutt City creation — boiled, soaked in warm spices and chiles, and dripping in a silky, slightly sweet and ultra fragrant coconut curry. It’s offered as a special each season when the bugs are at their best. All you have to do is show up, choose your spice level and get pinchin’, peelin’ and suckin.’
