    No...

    Cook prawn, lobster and alaskan king crab (not snow crab or other cheap crab) the same way.. baked in oven or steamed.. then have garlic butter and/or lemon..

    King crab > lobster > prawn

    Also lobster and prawn are dime and dozens.. you can easily buy them at groceries with seafood .

          I mainly do seafood in my diet but lobster Im not too crazy about. I find it tougher to chew and not as tender as crabs.

          Crabs are my favorite dishes especially the marinated Korean ones. Boiled crabs, any crabs, i love them.

          Also, the body is better than the Legs for sure and the ones who know crabs knows wsup with that.

          The crab intestines are the best part and with some steemed rice inside mixed with a touch of soy sauce, it’s fkin unbelievable..

          Lobsters are overrated. Crabs taste much better.

            Both are excellent, especially when you eat them after a hard weeks work. It's a nice reward to treat yourself with. My only complaint against Crab is that the legs can be a pain to extract the meat

                  I guess I prefer lobster with steak even more now.
