same, but it is good to get an idea of prices. I like restaurant depot because I can pick my sack off the shelf.

I may grab 100 oysters if they are still $25.

I like Michael's on Jefferson as well. I have friends that live by that school back there and we stop there a lot.

How is the availability at Restaurant Depot? Are they still running out often? How has the quality been?

I used to be the seafood manager there when they first opened up for like 7-8 months. Just wondering how it has been since. I may take a trip over there shortly to check it out.

I just go for a few things. mainly bulk baking goods and boxes and such. I do go into the cold section to buy fish and dairy. Veggies are in too big a quantity for me. But the seafood section is always nice in my opinion. They have a good selection. But we have been in arguing matches with Vietnamese over the last bag of crawfish before.
