Malaysia’s New Dining Trend: Fei Fei Crab Marks 17th Anniversary with First-Ever “No-Shell Crab” and a Limited-Time Menu with KEWPIE a Century-Old Brand

Malaysia’s renowned crab cuisine brand Fei Fei Crab has officially launched its “Thank You for 17 Years of Great Taste” anniversary campaign, introducing its first-ever No-Shell Crab dishes and a limited-time menu created in collaboration with a century-old Japanese brand. With creative dishes and a special lucky draw, Fei Fei Crab is expressing gratitude for 17 years of loyal customer support.

In recent years, Malaysia’s food and beverage industry has been moving steadily towards cross-border collaborations and innovative cuisine. According to insights from Food & Drinks Malaysia by SIAL 2025 (FDM 2025), Malaysia is cementing its position as Southeast Asia’s food innovation hub, underpinned by stronger public-private partnerships in the global food supply chain and agri-food technology sector. Partnerships between global brands and local F&B operators have become a key driver of market growth in the region.

Against this backdrop, local brands are increasingly exploring international collaborations to meet consumers’ demand for new flavours and convenient dining experiences. Fei Fei Crab, Malaysia’s most recognisable crab cuisine brand, marks its 17th anniversary this year by partnering with Japan’s century-old seasoning brand KEWPIE. Together, they are introducing five limited-time collaborative dishes under the theme “Flavours of the Heart, A Taste of Newness”, embodying the spirit of “17 Together, Stay True to Flavour”. This collaboration is not only a milestone for the brand but also a showcase of industry trends in action.

The five dishes feature KEWPIE’s signature sauces, infused with the natural sweetness of crab to create an East-meets-West dining experience. Highlights include Japanese Creamy Spicy No-Shell Crab, Smoked Mentai Crab Fried Rice, Moonlight Spicy Crab Cake Treasure Box, Cold Crab Meat Glass Noodles, and Refreshing Thai-Style Crab Salad.

The management of Fei Fei Crab said, “The inspiration for these five dishes comes from years of listening to our diners. People love the sweetness of crab but are always looking for more variety. Partnering with KEWPIE allowed us to experiment boldly, combining Japanese flavours with our signature crab recipes. The result is something both familiar and exciting – exactly the kind of surprise we wanted to deliver for our 17th anniversary.”

At the same time, Fei Fei Crab announced the launch of its innovative “No-Shell Crab” dishes, featuring freshly prepared, never-frozen crab meat. This innovation eliminates the hassle of shelling crab, allowing diners to enjoy the essence of crab with ease. It highlights the brand’s commitment to quality and its dedication to making crab cuisine more accessible.

Today, the brand operates 13 outlets across Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Penang, and Johor, serving tens of thousands of diners annually.
