Duke's Seafood at South Lake Union serves a Dungeness Crab “Un”Cakes appetizer that uses crab as the star, typically bound lightly and pan-seared rather than over-breaded.[28][23] The preparation aims to showcase the crab meat’s sweetness with a crisp exterior and minimal filler, often paired with a tangy or creamy sauce to add contrast.[28] As an appetizer, the portion is designed for sharing or for one person looking for a rich starter, combining tender crab inside with a satisfying crust that holds its shape on the plate.[28]
