There used to be this bar, way back, well over 30 years ago that had a buffet. They had everything seafood plus turtle, frog legs, oh my. On certain nights it was all you could eat for 9.99 plus 1 dollar huge draft beers. It was awesome till the dance floor gave out and law suits ended the wonderfulness lol. Beer is good, people are crazy, seafood trumps all. When I worked in Houston,they had a similar restaurant called Catfish Kitchen.You could order any three items off the menu,,and eat all you wanted for like five bucks.(This was in the late 70s ) They HATED seeing me come in.I wanted frog legs only.They would try to get you to eat hush puppys and the like to fill you up.I said nope,,just keep the frog legs coming.I could eat a bushel of em.  I like frog legs. However, in my experience, they are either outstanding or they taste like a back water swamp. I've never cooked them myself and I'm guessing it all depends on the preparation.

Our Food Lion had snow crab legs on sale a couple weeks ago for $7.99 a pound. I picked up about 10 pounds of them. Looking to have a great seafood dinner soon. LOTS of butter !!

I love seafood; haddock, halibut, soft shell crabs, clams, shrimp, scallops, calamari, lobster, etc. Fresh blowfish tails are the chicken of the sea.There are some fish like pollock, mackerel, bluefish, stripers that I don't care for. To me, there is a world of difference with seafood as to how fresh it is.Fresh seafood, as along the coast from Maine to Florida is outstanding. I like steak and veal cutlet, but seafood is my favorite
