Just days after Phillips Seafood announced it is leaving Harborplace (mall around the inner harbor), there’s something new to take its place.
Have you ever been on a real shrimp boat? Do you even like shrimp?..... well if you said yes to either question this post is for you!
"Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it." ....gotta LOVE BUBBA GUMP!
If you still haven't connected the dots well then Phillips seafood announced they are closing up shop at the Light Street Pavilion. In its place: Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, of “Forest Gump” fame. Set to open in May 2012 the restaurant features film memorabilia, photographs and reproductions of scripts, storyboards and costumes. There is also a retail store within the restaurant that sells souvenirs and clothing.
Shit why not whats yall FAVE forest gump quote heres mine!......"One day it started raining, and it didn't quit for four months. We been through every kind of rain there is. Little bitty stingin' rain... and big ol' fat rain. Rain that flew in sideways. And sometimes rain even seemed to come straight up from underneath. Shoot, it even rained at night..." Forest Gump
