I think I'm gonna try the classic San Francisco vietnamese garlic crab.

Is Thanh Long still around? Love the drunken crab there (and of course the garlic noodles), if you haven't been. Same people who do Crustacean.
Crab >>> Lobster, imo. Crab itself is much tastier than lobster... which doesn't taste like much to me. Then again I never really look to order lobster or cook it (to me the perfect lobster is eaten in a lobster roll), so any suggestions would be cool.
Shrimp - hm, you know I never really started enjoying shrimp til I got more into Chinese food (specifically Shanghai-nese).
One way I've found myself enjoying things I never liked before is eating them in interesting preparations / presentations.
Actually for shrimp, I just had an interesting "live, sweet shrimp" dish at a Korean place. Basically they kill the shrimp right before serving it (severing the head). Presentation is heads sticking up in the middle, bodies in a circle around the heads. Eat the bodies. For a second course they deep fry the heads and then you eat that. Really good.
