Eating ALASKAN KING CRAB at the Most Famous Crab Shack in Juneau Alaska).mp4

All right, this is a must-eat whenever you're in Juneau Tracy's King Crab Shack So this place looks really really fun on the outside There's about four or five giant pots that's cooking up all the crab in here They got of course Lask and King Crab, Snow Crab, Dungeness Crab, all fresh, all local crab So I got a combo and it comes with four crab cakes, lobster bisque that Emeril Lagasse once called Made with love and this is all my crabs right here. I am just so excited. This is the only time I'm really happy when I have a very crabby day First let's try this lobster bisque That will shake up all your taste buds. It's like flavors just roundhouse kick me in the face This is one of the best lobster bisque I've ever had. Emeril is not exaggerating This tastes like it came from my Lask and grandma's kitchen I never had lobster bisque this chunky before. You can see bits of lobster in here. This is borderline chowder It's rich, smoky, a little sweet Ton of heat. Oh man, I don't even want to take whole spoonfuls. I just want to savor this little by little. Oh, it's incredible. This is apparently what put them on the map and this is definitely a star attraction anywhere. This is a must try With this meal also comes with a couple little buns These are perfect vessels to carry this lobster bisque. Can't get over how good this is So these are little medallion sized crab cakes. Very crispy on the outside It's good. Not nearly as good as lobster bisque. It's definitely the crispiest crab cake I ever had It's like a little crabby hush puppy. A little sweet. Definitely a lot of crab flavor here. Not bad. Let's get to the crab Start with the snow as a little preview So got a cluster in half again all local Alaskan crab Oh, that's so good Snow crab so good. Sweet with a little bit of brininess with such a tender succulent texture I gotta try some of the king crab out. So the combo that you get with the king crab You got two full legs and a couple of joints. Look at the size of these legs This is absolutely beautiful. This is the red king crab. I didn't know they have something else called the golden king crab They were out of it today, but the red one is supposed to be sweeter and it just looks so beautiful I don't know if it's because I'm in Alaska or what but it looks redder. The color looks more vibrant Calming crazy. I think it's sweeter too. It's so incredibly sweet Wow So sweet and succulent who is I'm gonna do drop some king crab in here king crab and the lobster bisque Hmm Well, it's just the best of both worlds. No wonder this place is so busy. I'm so happy eating this right now Another place I really wanted to go to here in Juneau is the Mendenhall Glacier So after lunch a perfect time to go just got to the park and oh my gosh is a bear This thing probably just woke up from hibernation Not too big of one either That is absolutely amazing Holy moly, this is beautiful. You can feel a noticeable change in temperature when you're near the glacier So there's also a trail about two miles and I'll lead you here to nugget fall and there's the glacier right over there And there's the waterfall. Oh That's cold. I did see some people drinking from the waterfall water. I don't recommend that I mean, you don't know who or what is doing what upstream? Just got back from the glacier So if you go on a bus that trip is gonna be around three hours It's dinnertime and stay at this hotel right here called the silver bowl in really cute little boutique hotel and right next door Is this pretty amazing looking Italian restaurant? Let's check it out. So that place is really popular Don't have a table in about half an hour till then you can get a little bite to eat first at the cellar door On triple D So I really want to come here and grab some of these nachos before heading out to dinner according to Guy Fieri These will room with any ordinary nachos for you. So this thing is loaded with fresh tomatoes Korean slaw sesame sauce there's pinto beans homemade guacamole their fusion sauce sesame seeds and you can choose a variety of Protein and I got seared ahi Well, this is incredible. Oh my gosh is delicious. This is so good. It hurts Ordinary nachos Completely ruined. Guy Fieri is right. This is absurdly yummy the slaw is Nice and refreshing. The sauce is creamy and spicy. The ahi is so freaking good It's super tender and it's covered in melty cheese crispy onions Ooh, I'm also getting great fragrant sesame flavor as well. It's spicy. It's sour. It's rich and also refreshing This is like the most ultimate nachos Ever. This is absolutely spectacular Not overhyped at all by Guy Fieri. Gotta finish up and go to dinner. First dish I got this is so cool This is the fried Thunderdome because well, it looks like a Thunderdome It's a giant piece of puffy bread with Parmesan cheese on top and also with Parmesan on the side and this thing just came out of the oven. It smells ridiculous. Oh my gosh Oh Look at this. It's really thin and airy again. The top is covered in Parmesan cheese Dunk it into the whipped Parmesan. Oh My gosh, this is good This is the ultimate cheesy bread the crust kind of tastes like the crust of a Neapolitan pizza very airy and toasty with a little bit of bitterness from the char The Parmesan's hop is already giving us such a wonderful nutty cheesy flavor, but dip it into the whipped Parmesan You get a whole different texture of cheesiness. This is one of the most incredible breads I've ever had at an Italian restaurant. This is so good It's so buttery as well. I feel like I might need another one of these here. This bread is definitely a main attraction 100% must try this if you ever come here. All right. My other appetizer has arrived It's a roasted cauliflower with hot honey and Calabrian chilies And I think dill dipping sauce on the side with some pickled veg. Look at this thing this thing I think they popped it into the same oven as The bread and the pizzas so the outside is beautifully charred and look at this Juicy inside see all the spices. Oh My gosh, you see all the chilies on the bottom of this cauliflower. Oh Wow Cauliflower is really really tender. You got a little hint of bitterness from the char Of course that gooey sweet sweetness from the honey and then this thing just sits on your tongue and burns you I Think it's better with the dill sauce I love dill and it's just as a cooling factor to the cauliflower, which is just burning hot It's sweet and very very spicy. I really love that sweet bitterness from the outside char And on the side look at this. This is pickled cauliflower leaves So they're utilizing the whole cauliflower in different ways. This is a genius It kind of tastes a little bit like lettuce roots. That was really good. Wow. I've had roasted cauliflower before This is the best one I've had by far. There's no arguing how flavorful this is and the heat is Deliciously punishing. Oh, I just learned a little more about this restaurant So initially I think the owners of the restaurant wanted to make an Italian restaurant But eventually what they did was create a restaurant that's Laskan food with Italian flavors with a slight Filipino influence because apparently 10% of the Juneau population is from the Philippines and that's why these dishes are so unique Entrees here. This looks freaking incredible This is called a Fra Diavolo Maffodone and Fra Diavolo sauce is a spicy tomato Sauce and they really upped the ante on the spicy here Just like they did on the cauliflower is covered in chilies The scallop is covered in chilies and the scallops are local Alaskan jumbo scallops. I have a feeling this is gonna be amazing Maffodone is one of my favorite pastas. I love the chewy texture of this pasta. Very zesty tomato sauce tons of heat in here scallops It's something you barely need to chew Sweet very very succulent jumbo scallops. Oh, this will go so well with the bread get some of that bread dip it in the sauce Never been to Juneau before really didn't know much about it. It's such a foodie city There's so much influence from Filipino cuisine here, whether it's Mexican food, Italian food. You can see it. You can taste it I mean the pickled vegetables and the cauliflower amazing There's so much extra flavors in all these dishes and we haven't got to dessert yet Desserts ube panna cotta with I think a crumbled up Oreo cookie on top. Oh It's so creamy this thing feels so good after all that heat Mmm, this is like ube silk It's so cool Italian restaurant with a little Filipino flavors mixed in there's actually so many other restaurants I wanted to try out here in Juneau But like I said, I only have about 24 hours here My flight is leaving very early tomorrow morning But this has been an amazing food day tons of items checked off my food bucket list first time here in Alaska And I was trying to debate on where to go either Anchorage or Juneau I mean not knocking the pussy in Anchorage But I feel like I made the right choice and as always all the place I went to listed down below for you guys Thank you all so much for watching until we eat again. See you later
