Blue crab in Manhattan?
So, I'm trying to make a blue crab dish, but they don't sell blue crab at the local super market. (I live in the Murray Hill area).
Does anyone know where I can get blue crab (hopefully fresh) in manhattan? Someone mentioned chinatown to me, but where in chinatown would i go? anywhere else?
Thanks in advance.

Try the Chinese markets on Mulberry St. south of Canal, or Grand St. east of the Bowery.

You can walk along canal and you'll see the markets with the bushels of blue crab right out front.

The freshest crabs are on Mott Street between Canal and Grand Sts.
