Today my girlfriend and I continued our journey in providing top notch options for students who are looking for a suitable place to have a meaningful date. The second out of our five contenders for this specific topic was no other than Willy’s Crab Shack, this restaurant is known by the Shekou community due to its incredible daily deals and its unique approach to restaurant design and food.

今天我的女朋友和我又踏上了“性价比之旅”，我们旨在为学生狗挖掘味美价廉，环境幽美的餐厅，不论是朋友聚餐还是情侣约会的绝佳选择。而这其中的第二站就是洪杰海鲜西餐厅，这是蛇口人都耳熟能详的餐厅之一，不仅是因为他们每天都有一款不同的特价菜，更是因为他们独到的装潢设计和高出品水准。









Located in Old Shekou, Willy’s Crab is a restaurant specialised in western food, offering food that ranges from New York style pizza to well, crabs! Willy’s is a family owned restaurant and is owned by the same family that brought us Jordan’s and Cheers.

洪杰海鲜西餐厅正如它的名字一般，主营多种地道的西式美食，例如美式披萨，以及新鲜的海鲜。洪杰海鲜西餐是家族生意，在此之前他们在当地还经营着两家酒吧，Jordan’s和Cheers。









Knowing of the popularity of deals in this restaurant, including buy one get one free pizzas every Monday and the deal my girlfriend and I will be trying today, the Lunch Special, which offers Hard Tacos, Soft Tacos, Willy’s House Salad, Caesar Salad, Cheese Burger, Buffalo Chicken Burger and the Hot Dog at prices as low as 25 RMB.

Willy’s每周一有一个“披萨买一送一”的活动，今天我们来吃的是他们的午市特惠。这些特价家基本都不超过25人民币，选择也颇为丰富，包括软、硬墨西哥塔克，Willy’s特色沙拉，凯撒沙拉，芝士汉堡，布法罗鸡肉汉堡和热狗。





Upon arriving at the location, we were pleased to see a bar like environment that did not try too hard to appeal to the Shenzhen nightlife. This is a good differentiator, as the feeling of having a cozy environment where friends can come together to watch sports and eat good food contrasts well with other offerings that emphasise in an active environment, with lots of yelling and shouting. This is especially good when it comes to dates, as Willy’s Crab’s environment allows for both fun and the sense of privacy that any couple could appreciate.

餐厅的装潢保持着酒吧元素，没有过分地追求与深圳夜生活保持一致，虽然说充斥浓厚的酒吧文化，不过这里的环境，相当清静舒适，还有一定的私密性。但也不要误会，这并不等于“乏味”，洪杰海鲜西餐厅也是一个充满欢乐的餐厅，不时就看到三五知己聚在一起大笑畅饮，哪怕一起放肆喊叫，也无伤大雅。











We are also happy to report that the service at Crab’s was fantastic, being both quick to take our orders and deliver our food. The fact that all staffs were always smiling while wearing their bright red Willy’s T-shirts, made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

不得不提的是，他们的服务也十分贴心周到，上菜速度也比较块。而这里的每一位服务员不论你何时到来，你都会发现他们都是笑眼盈盈的，让人感受到如家一般的温暖。





Willy’s House Salad: 25 RMB

Willy’s 特色沙拉：25 RMB









Between the choices of Willy’s House Salad and the Caesar salad, we chose the House Salad as it was a better representation of the name of Willy’s Crab Shack. Without knowing much of what we were about to get into, we waited, excited to see what we would get.

在Willy’s 特色沙拉和 凯撒沙拉之间，我们选择了特色沙拉，因为它好像更能代表餐厅的名字。我们对这道菜没有太大的概念，但仍然非常期待。





When the salad arrived, we were awed at the variety of vegetables in the salad. Upon taking a bite, we could taste the sourness of the vinegar which the vegetables were drenched in. Sometimes, it makes you wish that there was more vinegar so you would have a mouthful in each bite. The mixture of hazelnuts in this dish makes for a creative salad that we certainly hadn’t heard of before.

这道特色沙拉混合多种新鲜蔬菜，淋上了酸酸的油醋汁，格外开胃，甚至为了能尝到更多的醋汁，你忍不住大吃一口，把嘴巴塞得满满的。沙拉还加入了混合榛子，平添另一番风味。





The dish comes in a portion that is big enough to easily be shared, so if you and your date want something that is fresh and light, give the Willy’s salad a shot and it won’t let you down.

这道菜的份量很适合多人一起享用，如果你和你的约会对象刚好想吃一些清淡的食物，那就不要错过Willy’s特色沙拉，它绝不会让你失望的。





Soft Tacos: 38 RMB

软塔克：38 RMB









As we heard Tacos were part of the Lunch Menu, we ordered it bluntly, thinking that Tacos just couldn’t really get much better than what we had previously tried in other restaurants. When we got the question “beef or chicken?” my girlfriend and I decided on Chicken, but we ordered without much energy or excitement, genuinely not expecting something that we couldn’t order from plenty of other places around town.

当我们听说塔克饼也在午餐菜单里面时，心里想着应该没有以前吃过的那些餐厅那么好吃。所以当服务员问我们要牛肉还是鸡肉的时候，一直首选牛肉的我俩，这次就同时选择了一个保守不易出错的选项：鸡肉。

It was only when the tacos arrived that I realised how special these were. Not only were they only 38 RMB, but they came in 3 big pieces and surprisingly also accompanied sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole, tomato sauce and lettuce. This instantly made us much happier about our order, it brought the tacos to a new level as now we had three tasty tacos that could be customised to our likings, this was new to both of us and was certainly a welcomed change.

直到塔克被端上来的时候，我才意识到它的独特。不仅仅因为它感人的价格，3个塔克同时配有满满的酸奶油，芝士，鳄梨酱，番茄酱和生菜。这让我们非常惊喜，三种不同的口味我们都尝过了，willy家的美味塔克饼让我们对塔克的认知又上升了一个层次，有了全新的体验和认识。





The tacos themselves were made of juicy chicken, which together with all the sides, made for a taco that absolutely surpassed our expectations. This dish makes a good option for anyone not looking to eat a whole lot but just share one dish or wants to have a very intimate eating experience.

墨西哥卷里的鸡肉鲜嫩多汁。加上新鲜的配菜，这完全超出了我的想象。如果你不想吃太多或者想跟别人分享品尝更多的菜肴，这盘菜最适合你。





Cheese Burger: 35 RMB

芝士汉堡：35RMB





Some would say that a cheeseburger shows the true colours of a restaurant. This "policy" pertains for Willy's Crab Shack just the same, which provides the most standard cheeseburger there is. Between two burger buns are lettuce, tomatoes, onions, a hefty beef patty, and most importantly, a slice of cheese.

有些人会跟你说一个最基本的芝士汉堡显示了这个餐馆的烹饪水平。在Willy’s，这个说法同样适用。他们的芝士汉堡非常标准，在两片汉堡包之间夹着生菜，西红柿，洋葱，一大片厚厚肉饼，还有最重要的一片芝士。





Although the featured cheese may be a bit light for your tasting because of the onions, the classic taste of a good cheeseburger still prevails between the two. Paired with a generous amount of fries, this makes a perfect meal for satisfying a large diet.

虽然芝士被洋葱的味道稍稍抢去了些许风头，但这个芝士汉堡的经典味道仍然完胜。他的配菜薯条份量十分可观，这道菜绝对是大胃王吃货们的福音。





Mozzarella Sticks (Not on Lunch Menu): 45 RMB

芝士棒（不包括在午餐单上）：45RMB





Upon arriving, my girlfriend and I had a mission, to review the Lunch Menu, but having heard of how amazing Willy’s Mozzarella Sticks were, we couldn’t help but put it to the test.

虽然我们这次的任务是尝试Willy’s的午餐菜单，我们因为听说他们的芝士棒有多好吃之后忍不住也点了一份。





At first inspection, the Mozzarella Sticks were served in a big enough portion so that two could easily share it as an appetiser. The sticks themselves looked goldenly crispy and well fried, without being overly oiled which will in the long run make your doctor just a tad happier. The sticks also came accompanied with pasta tomato sauce for anyone looking for a different substitute for ketchup.

芝士棒很适合给两个人当开胃菜。金黄的外表，少油煎炸，无需担心你会摄入过多脂肪。芝士棒搭配的是更具风味的意大利面番茄酱，而不是一般的那种薯条番茄酱。





My girlfriend and I had a deal for this one, we were going to take a bite at the exact same time, I imagined this would be pretty cute but I was also curious to see what her first reaction would be. We took our first bite and simultaneously I look at her and it almost reminds me of one of those over the top satisfaction scenes in burger ads, it was almost as if everything went into slow motion, she looked overjoyed. As I finished eating mine, I quickly reached to grab the second one, I just had discovered the best appetiser there could ever exist.

我和我的女朋友决定一起在同一时间吃第一口，同时观察对方的表情。我觉得这十分有趣。果不其然，我眼前的一幕就是一个充满享受的大笑脸。吃完了第一个，我忍不住马上去吃下一个。在这一刻，我知道我吃的是世上最好的开胃菜。





If you’re looking to have an amazing start for your dinner, something you can share with you significant other and just want something different from nachos or soup, the Mozzarella Sticks are for you.

如果你想尝试一种新的开胃菜，洪杰海鲜西餐厅的芝士棒是你的最佳选择。





Buffalo Chicken Burger: 35 RMB

布法罗鸡肉汉堡：35RMB





I’m from South America and my girlfriend although not born here, has heavy Chinese influence, from simply hearing this you would think that we would both be basically immune to spicy food. We thought so too, but this burger proved us wrong, but in a good way.

我来自南美，我的女朋友是华裔。这么说，你会觉得我们都会吃辣。不过，吃完这个汉堡，我发现我们吃辣的能力根本没有我们想象的那么好。





You know the feeling of having something hurt you but you just want more, almost like Coca-Cola, this unstoppable addiction that leaves you wanting more and more needless of the side-effects? This is exactly how I would describe this burger. Here you have to ignore this dish’s golden buns and crispy fries and purely concentrate on the meat. The strong spicy smell, the reddish chicken with Tabasco sauce dripping slowly onto your plate, this is what this burger is about. Every bite you take, you taste both the sauce and the deliciously cooked chicken that even on top of all the sauce, leaves you wanting to immediately take the next one, then the next, until suddenly you’re either begging for water or you no longer have a burger in front of you.

你也有过明知山有虎偏向虎山行的念头吧？在事物上，许多不健康但很容易上瘾的东西你有时就是管不住嘴吧？我对这个汉堡的感觉就是这样的。吃这个汉堡需要彻底忽略汉堡的面包和配送的薯条，用心去享受他的鸡肉饼。红红的鸡肉和热辣的辣椒酱充满了辛辣的香味。你吃的每一口带有丰富层次的香辣味，让你渴望着不停地咬下一口，直到你把自己辣得受不了。





If you’re not a fan of spices or you know your date isn’t, I would not recommend this as a surprise order, but if you are a fan of spices or you want to have a challenge with your date on who can eat what might be the spiciest burger I have ever tried, you’re in for a treat.

如果你们不爱吃辣，或者不会吃辣，这个汉堡不适合你。但如果你无辣不欢或极具挑战精神，那么这个汉堡一定是你的最佳选择。





Conclusion:





Willy’s Crab offers an amazing environment, with the best of both worlds when it comes to a bar like environment and a place where you can on top of everything, spend some quality time with your significant other. To add on to the incredible environment, Willy’s also offers incredible food, which are cooked and served with passion.
