PBS documentary.

Anybody watching, or seen this before?

The footage is gold. Lots of great interviews, pictures, and footage of some historic places.
This really is must see TV for anyone that enjoys New Orleans' culinary history.

Sharky's Reef

My dad knew the guy that bought the glass the tanks were made out of after they went belly up.

It was 4 inch thick glass that sat there for a year before he got it. Not sure what happened to it after that.

We're not sure if it's going to work or not. We've only been on for 29 years.

That place was great. Had the freshest fish. I am sure it is somewhat nostalgia but that was always a real treat for my family when i was a kid.
