Shrimp Stand!

Today I visited one of the Shrimp Stands on the windward side of the island called ROMY'S.   The price was $20 bucks for the combo which included 
 shrimp, rice, small salad, piece of corn on the cob and a small soda.   It was good and like all meals, good conversation added spice and the friendly folks made it that much nicer.  The cool thing is they raise the prawns in the ponds behind the stand, so they're very fresh...although slightly bland unless doused with garlic butter.   If your diet doesn't include shrimp, they  also serve fried Sunfish--whatever a SunFish is...other than a bit bony (but then again if I was so picky about bones I could have had Chicken Nuggets at the McDonald's next to the Polynesian Cultural Center).  
Besides napkins, the covered seating area to the right has a sink with soap to wash your hands before and after eating.     You can check out their website at www.romyskahukuprawn.org

Mahalo, 
Chet
