Bon Crevette

You might be hard pressed to find oysters around town right now - I know that Galatoire's ran out before dinner service on Sunday night. But have no fear: last Friday the first local oyster beds were given the green light for harvesting, so those pearls of the sea will hopefully be back in abundance in no time. On the other hand, crabmeat of all sorts is in short supply - Galatoire's had no soft shells whatsoever on Sunday.

Now the for the good news: local white shrimp are looking mighty fine right now. These were fresh, wild caught Louisiana shrimp sold by Gage and Evin Shrimp from down in Cut Off.
