The Declaration
Ministry of Crab was created as a culinary homecoming of Sri Lanka’s iconic lagoon crab, which has long since gained popularity on and off the island.
At Ministry of Crab, freshness is of utmost importance, and our kitchen employs a no-freezer policy, serving you the best produce made with the highest quality ingredients.
Crab is the ‘star of the show’ at Ministry of Crab. Sitting alongside our signature Chilli Crab, Pepper Crab and Baked Crab, you’ll find King Prawns from the coastal areas of India, fresh Clams and Oysters from the lagoons, and a curated range of delectable rice and vegetarian dishes.
We’re out to create a culinary experience that will take you straight to the island.
Keep Calm and Crab On!
