Natasha's talking about deveining shrimp.
Depends upon the size of the individual shrimp...
All restaurants should devein large shrimp.
Small shrimp is a judgement call.
However, if a customer notices.... it should have been done.
And by the way, it's not actually a vein, it's the shrimp's digestive tract.
So... what's at the lower end of any animals digestive tract??

Natasha's reaction to a restaurant prep failure is valid.

TW, a small knife and a couple seconds of handling.

Large jumbo shrimp taco with extra sauce and savory juicy seasoning
I travel to HTown three to five times a year. Usually I stay in the Woodlands.

Turlock and Lamdrys is the best.

Bayou City Seafood on Richmond just inside the W. Loop is one of the hidden treasures in Houston when it comes to good seafood.

It's has a genuine Louisiana Bayou feel and taste to it. The mudbugs are some of the best in town, when in season. I think the gumbo is the best in Houston... or certainly one of the best...

Pappas Seafood - Humble. I've eaten at nearly all of the "nicer" seafood restaurants multiple times and this Pappas is the best!


Honorable Mention: Monument Inn in East Houston.


A'Man, I love you, brother. But that shit is nasty!!!

bbkid, it's just a crayfish.

I've been to Bayou City.
Had most everything on the menu. It's been a while though.
