A GREAT Discovery

While on vacation my family & I always like to find local spots to check out.
we NEVER like to go restaurants that we can go to close to home
well except for Cracker Barrel.....that's the stop of choice while on the road
and trust me when I say that has become the joke of our family!

Because my Hubs has a love for all you can eat anything. . . .
and in case you are wondering he is a skinny bean pole!
we set out on a quest to find a spot to make him happy since the place we discovered just a year earlier was CLOSED!
so after some Internet searches we thought this place was worth a try
{you can check them out here }
When we pulled into the drive it didn't look like a very big place but it looked super clean from the outside
that's always a good sign
When we stepped inside. . . . I was really pleased.  The decor was done up in a cute beachy local art
again.....a good sign
Even though I pretty much knew I was getting the all you can eat shrimp before I walked in the door
I had to look over the whole menu because it all looked so good!
I am a shrimp eating fool so yes the shrimp won again!
 and let me just tell you that they were THE BEST fried shrimp I have ever had!
Like EVER!
they were lightly breaded in a way that allowed the shrimp to be crunchy without the breading being the only taste or texture in your mouth.
Crunchy & meaty. . . 
They really nailed it! 
Amazing!!!
I also LOVED the slaw!
the taste was great but what really sent it to the moon was the little tiny baby shrimp they put in it
{yes I know they are called salad shrimp but that doesn't sound near as cute}
you see that little guy in there. . . . really good stuff
they also had great iced tea!  just the right brew. . . 
I really hate when I order an iced tea & it's nothing but glorified water.
 I regret not asking if I could have one of their cups!!! 
yes . . . that is how much I like this place. . .I wanted a cup OK?!?!?
 Oh Look . . . there is my brother 
Isn't he the sweetest??? 
Maybe that was his way of saying great place 

 We ate well & had lots of laughs in a new favorite place
 too bad I will have to drive 15 hours next time the craving hits!!
To get straight to the point. . . .
 next time you are in Navarre Florid  and you want great food
with friendly service at an awesome price
check out the Shrimp Basket
we liked it so much....we went again a few days later & had the steamed shrimp...mmmmm good!

~Happy Creating
