Hong Kong’s well-loved dining group, Maxin’s Chinese Cuisine, is ushering in the height of autumn with an ambitious, crab-centric culinary campaign spanning its major brands. Running now through the end of 2026, the promotion places the spotlight on premium Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, Alaskan king crab, and delicately crafted crab roe dishes, offering diners a range of options from value set menus and a la carte specials to convenient gift boxes delivered straight to their doors.
Golden Autumn Feast: A Perfect Pairing for Two
At the heart of the rollout is the “Golden Autumn Feast,” a two-person set menu designed for those who crave an authentic seasonal experience. Available at flagship restaurants including Maxin’s Palace, Garden Court, August Moon, and more, the menu revolves around a pair of steamed Shanghai hairy crabs sourced from the center of Yangcheng Lake. Each crab bears an official anti-counterfeit tag, ensuring provenance and quality. Guests can enjoy the feast for dine-in or takeaway, priced at an original $960, but slashed to just $778 for eligible credit card holders—an effective 15% discount.
The full menu includes:
- Steamed Yangcheng Lake Hairy Crab (2 pieces)
- Hua Tiao Wine-marinated Pigeon
- Salt-and-Pepper Pan-fried Abalone
- Crab Roe and Seafood “Shark’s Fin” Soup
- Stir-fried Scallops, Clams, and Fresh Yam
- Crab Roe with Pea Shoots
- Conpoy and Egg White Fried Rice
- Ginger Tea and Sweet Glutinous Rice Balls
Bring the Harvest Home with Premium Gift Boxes
For those who prefer a relaxed evening at home, Maxin’s offers the “Premium Yangcheng Lake Hairy Crab Gift Box.” Each box contains ten premium crabs along with complimentary ginger tea, crab vinegar, perilla leaves, and a full set of cracking tools. Orders placed online at least two days in advance qualify for free home delivery.
- Gold Autumn Special (Male 5 taels / Female 4 taels): $1,368 (regularly $1,710)
- Premium Supreme (Male 5.5 taels / Female 4.5 taels): $1,848 (regularly $2,310)
Both sizes are available in all-male, all-female, or mixed options, giving buyers total flexibility.
Alaskan King Crab at a Steal
Hairy crabs are not the only star of the show. Maxin’s is also flying in Alaskan king crabs fresh from the Bering Sea. Dine-in patrons can enjoy them for just $268 per catty (down from $388), while a takeaway option is available at $298 per catty. For an additional $98, diners can upgrade their order to a fragrant Chicken Oil and Hua Tiao wine preparation, or pair it with braised E-Fu noodles and a premium crab roe fried rice.
Northern Flair with Beijing Restaurant and Urban Duck
For those who lean toward northern Chinese and Jiangnan flavors, Beijing Restaurant and the Urban Duck series bring depth to the crab season. Beijing Restaurant’s “Crab Roe Delicacies” four-person set is priced at $1,880 and features a whole Peking duck alongside dishes like crab roe yellow croaker, crab roe shrimp balls, and crab roe soup dumplings. Over at Urban Duck and Mei Zhong Duck, guests can enjoy a rotating selection of daily hand-picked crab roe items at a 15% discount with a qualifying credit card.
A Season to Savor
This sweeping campaign underscores Maxin’s commitment to making luxury seasonal ingredients accessible and celebratory. As the days grow cooler, the group’s diverse offerings—from authentic steamed hairy crabs and rich crab roe noodles to Alaskan king crab feasts—give Hong Kong diners every reason to gather around the table. With promotional periods ending in late November and December 2026, securing a reservation or a gift box early is highly recommended.
