Great shrimp - as fresh as they can be.

Worth stopping by for a shrimp cocktail and a drink. The crocodile rehabilitation center on the same grounds are interesting. The shrimp farming operation is amazing.

Shrimp, and then more shrimp

Shrimp, and more shrimp. The other items on the menu were mostly unavailable. But we did come for shrimp and the shrimp were available in multitudinous servings. We had shrimp cocktail as an appetizer and the shrimp alfredo and were not disappointed.
