Icon5 Where can I find in Orlando......

Really BIG shrimp? I've seen them on a couple of
shows like Bizzare Foods and Anthony Bourdain.
They are either shrimp or prawns the ones that
you break at the tail and suck the "stuff" from the
head first and then the tail Think there is a
chance I could find some of these this December?
Any help out there? Comments? I thank you kindly

Heehee Franco you have just described one of my fav foods....crawfish


After going back and reading i'm wondering if you are referring to crawfish. When boiled they're bright red and look like mini lobsters????
If so then, you don't want boiled crawfish in Dec. Fried, etouffee's etc are fine as they're prev frozen (blah) but better than from the sewers from abroad

Re: Where can I find in Orlando......

Mickeyspal, yes the link worked. You must have
seen the Giant Prawns right? We are going in the
right direction and I thank you very much for look
ing around for me. I have looked at a LOT of
restaurants in Orlando with no luck yet. There is
one place its called Johnnies Hideaway where they
have something called "Madacascar Shrimp" I
might call them to see what they are. And the
quest continues.

Re: Where can I find in Orlando......

Franco54. Poking around the web it looks like the Madagascar shrimp is what you are looking for. It seems to be a "branded" product. Here is a link with a picture and a description of its size.
