If you ever wonder what is curacha, it is a Chavacano delicacy and found only in Zamboanga. You will also find it strange looking because of the shape which resembles a lobster and crab that you will think it’s a crossbreed. It has also other name such as redfrog crab or spanner crab because it really looks like a red colored frog when you see it crawl. Another noticeable characteristic is the color reddish pink which looks like it is already cooked. But the color will become more intense when it’s cooked, the shells are bright red.
