Notes: This is my own ( I think, improved ) version of Singapore's famous Chili Crab. Jimi and I grew up 1 block away from each other. When my aunt died in Singapore I went over for her funeral. While I was there, Jimi texted me to say hi. When I asked him how he was he said "I'm in Singapore." I said,"Me too." As it turned out, his hotel was still only 1 block away from mine. Of course we went out for dinner...and had chili crab.
