Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) is the Pacific Northwest's defining crustacean, named for Dungeness Spit in the Olympic Peninsula. Oregon's commercial season opens December 1 and runs through August, with peak quality and price at opening. Portland has run high-end Dungeness crab cakes since Jake's Famous Crawfish opened in 1892 and codified the West Coast crab cake format: minimal binder, sweet crab as the dominant flavour, light coating, served warm with citrus aioli. The dish is now standard at Le Pigeon, Departure and Olympia Provisions.
