Description
Three Spot Crab, locally known as Tikkari, is the most popular everyday crab in Karachi. Named for the distinctive three spots on its shell, this crab delivers surprisingly rich, sweet meat at a budget-friendly price. Perfect for crab masala, crab curry, fried crab, and the classic Karachi-style crab karahi. Smaller than blue swimmer or tiger crabs but packed with flavour. Sold per kilogram — available whole or cleaned. Fresh daily from coastal fisheries.
Note: We deliver seafood on next day. Order today and receive fresh seafood at your doorstep tomorrow.
Weight Information: Crab is weighed before cleaning and cutting. If you choose cleaning, washing, or cutting services, the final delivered weight may be slightly lower due to the removal of Shell, internal parts, and trimming during processing. This is a normal part of seafood preparation and ensures you receive a clean, ready-to-cook product.
