Our take: Logan Square’s crustacean station: The Crab Pad turns seafood into performance art. Bring a crisp white and watch your inhibitions melt away with the butter.
Wine Pairing: Crab calls for crisp whites. Bring an Albariño or a Muscadet. For a fun pairing, try a dry sparkling Vouvray.
Beer Pairing: A Belgian witbier like Hoegaarden complements seafood nicely. For a local option, try Cruz Blanca's Mexico Calling Lager.
Spirits Pairing: A bottle of Tito's Vodka makes great martinis with crab. For a twist, bring Novo Fogo Silver Cachaça for caipirinhas.
