Taking place alongside the River Dart, on the Quay in Dartmouth, this fantastic Street Party sees South Devon Crab on the menu. Expect music and entertainment as a side order with some of the best tasting crab you're ever likely to eat.

South Devon Crab is highly aclaimed and this is a superb local street party and the best oppertunity to taste in style. Organised by Rockfish Restaurant alongside celebrity local chef Mitch Tonks, who is a strong advocate for food of South Devon, this is an event not to be missed

Dress up, dress down, but make sure you get a ticket to this 'ticket only' event. Tickets available from Rockfish

To wet your appeitite here's your own little guide to South Devon Crab

Brown Meat - The brown meat is packed with flavour, it's a taste of the sea and mixed with a little mayo and lemon juice spread on toast it is delicious. This is arguably the best part of the crab. In female crabs you will often find orange parts that are called the coral, these are the eggs of the female crab and are very saline and sea like to eat. You can mix with some mayo if they are a little dry.

White Meat - In the claws you will find lovely flakes of sweet white meat. The knuckle of the claw contains a wonderful firm nugget, whilst the body contains smaller flakes. The top part of the legs especially on larger crab hide a further nugget of delicious white meat.
