re: Off The Hook Seafood Market***Offerings and Specials***

Below is a link to some shrimp skewers that we will be offering in our fresh seafood case. The shrimp are hand peeled and deveined with the tail on and are made from 9/12 count Louisiana fresh jumbo shrimp. All the vegetables are fresh cut. We plan on experimenting with these types of things in the future.

I'm finding some people in Baton Rouge don't care as much for real poboy bread

That's my point. This isn't New Orleans and a lot of people seem to be complaining about this type of bread. That goes for every restaurant I've ever seen it sold in around here.

Just my two cents.

I understand. I'm definitely keeping that in mind. I am going to look into some alternatives just in case people do not like the bread here. I'm not really sure what the overall consensus has been here because I have only gotten two complaints on the bread so far after selling several poboys.

Thanks for your input. Believe me, I need as much input as I can get.

came in for the 3rd time today and I've got a few suggestions

1 try putting the bread in the walk-in it keeps longer also leave it in a closed container
2 try leaving your onion rings soaking in ice water and rough them up a lil bit more to make them crunchy also try to fry them in their own fryer so they don't take the taste of the seafood

loved the gumbo and the shrimp poboy very pleased

---

Thanks for the suggestions and the praise.

Never heard of the onion ring thing. What does soaking them in cold water do? Softens the onion rings up? And how do you rough them up?

The bread we do keep in closed containers now that we have learned a little more about it. We also freeze it overnight in the case that we don't sell all of it. Leidenheimer actually recommends freezeing it and letting it thaw out naturally the next day.

I wouldn't freeze it I would just keep it in the walk-in I've used this product before and doing this it would last me atleast 5 days do you have a flat top grill?

---

Yep I do have a flat top. Thanks for the tips. Will definitely try that.

I've been twice now and wanted to give some feedback. My first trip last week we picked up a seafood box, some boiled shrimp, and some boudin balls. Today we picked up a seafood box, an oyster poboy, and boudin balls.

First off, the boudin balls were great both times. I could eat those for days.

I noticed the oysters seemed to be fried a little differently on my two trips. They were good both times. I felt they were a little more traditional today. The poboy may have been the best I've ever had during my 5 years living in Baton Rouge... oysters falling out everywhere and great bread!

The fried shrimp on my first trip didn't really impress, but today I felt they were much better. They had a great flavor. I'm not sure if you made a change, but if you did it was a great one. Boiled shrimp were very good.

I guess my only real complaint is that in each seafood box I had a piece of fish that the batter just completely fell off of when I touched it. I'm not sure if it is from the large pieces of fish that you use or from the thick batter, but you may want to look into that.

All things considered I really enjoy this place and have been recommending it to everyone I know. I plan to try your fresh fish and skewers soon. I wish y'all the best of luck with your business!
