Shaw's Crab House

Shaw's Crab House It's November already, hope you turned back the clocks... and remember, time's running out on Nantucket Cape Scallops, as sweet as candy only better. The short season on these babies means they'll be long gone before Thanksgiving... don't miss the boat Pilgrim, XO Shelly

Shaw's Crab House Happy Halloween everyone, watch out for the sharks, sea monsters and other creatures out there in the murky depths... oh yeah, forgot, you just have to worry about Bart Simpson coming to your door. But don't woof everything Saturday night... 'cause kids eat for free at Shaw's Sunday Brunch! ...and talk about treats, Bear's Game Day Bloodys! ...see ya there!

I really appreciate that you guys let the kids eat free for the brunch. It is an incentive for us to come to that more often, considering they usually don't even eat an entire plate! Thanks for doing that!

The 21st Annual Royster with the Oyster Tent Party is always a rowdy affair, but it gets truly wild when Lin Brehmer comes onstage to announce the start of the Grand National Slurp-Off... this year's undisputed champion is Jon Ashby... follow all the action as Shelly the Mermaid gets sideways while recording the event,... but fear not, she gets back up on her tail to finish bringing you the crowd, the slurpers and next year's promise.Read More

Shaw's Crab House Quintus McCormick is back in the house! This bluesman has all the chops, slurp a few of Rodney's Queens and catch a buzz form Quintus and the band (Wendy is hot, on bass) ...Nantucket Cape Scallops are in, pure sweetness, but the season is short (coupla weeks only) don't blame me... XO Shelly

Royster Week featured Toronto's very own Rodney Clark as he was inducted into the Oyster Hall of Fame at this celebration hosted by ChicaGourmets and Shaw's. Eamon Clark shucked some of his dad's most delicious oysters from the Canadian Maritime Islands and they were the hit of the reception. Chef Arnie Tellez presente...d some of Rodney's special recipes for the 3-course dinner to follow paired with exceptional wines. Steve LaHaie of Shaw's presided over induction ceremonies with Donald Newcomb of ChicaGourmets.Read More

"Are you ready?"... it was tense and dense around the raw bar as all the week's winners from Schaumburg and Chicago gathered to compete for the best 4 top slurpers to proceed out to the tent. Sean, Mike, Sam, and Tim with "Cinderella" slurper Jon Ashby made it. This is the instant replay... does it answer the judges ru...lings, not really, but we all know who won the Big One, what a night to remember.

Shaw's Crab House Thank You - Thank You - Thank You... this year's Royster with the Oyster was a rockin' sweet send-off for the Chicago outdoor festival season and a serious good time for all of us at Shaw's. The after party in the Oyster Bar was what Chicago is all about... new friends, fun memories and a great place to meet.
