Masak Lemak Ketam....hem....memang favorite ramaikan!!!!! Memang sedap sajian ini, kemanisan ketam disatukan dengan kemanisan nenas menjadikan sajian ini begitu enak sekali. Kalau memasak masak lemak ini saya gemar meletakkan daun kunyit, ini menambahkan keharuman pada kuahnya. Sedap makan bersama nasi panas, ulam-ulaman dan sambal belacan.
