Crab cakes, crab bisque, roasted crab, barbequed crab, crab salad, crab with pasta, the list is endless and only limited by the imagination of a chef. Many recipes have been created to celebrate one of the oldest creatures on the planet found in oceans worldwide. Different types of Crabs vary in size from as small as the pea crab living inside oyster shells to the Japanese spider crab with a body measuring about 18 inches by 12 inches.

Right before Thanksgiving holiday, Pure Luxury featured a blog on the Top 10 places in Bodega Bay to enjoy the beginning of crab season. Today Pure Luxury would like to highlight another event in Sonoma where crab is king – St. Francis Winery & Vineyards Ode to Crab Winery Dinner.
