No, I didn’t make a mistake and accidently posted an entry meant for my food blog, Cafe Munchkin.  Hee hee.  ;)  Just let me be. 

My family loves seafood, as in each and everyone of us.  Crabs, shrimps, mussels, fish, just drive us nuts!  We prefer to have them steamed or grilled without any over powering ingredients.  A dash of salt and some lemon usually is enough for us. 

That said, when we went to Truluck’s some time in February, we ordered seafood exactly the way we wanted them.   My mom had Fresh Steamed Pacific Northwest Dungeness Crab served with Truluck’s rice and steamed broccoli.

And for my daughter’s enjoyment, we ordered Shrimp Cocktail.

Wanting our seafood steamed or grilled doesn’t mean we’re not adventurous.  We actually are!  Every now and then, we go out of our comfort zone and sample seafood with megadoses of other ingredients.  Hee hee.  If I could, I would head down to Louisiana for the Great American Seafood Cook off on Aug 2-3 at the New Orleans Morial Convention Center within the Louisiana Foodservice EXPO and the Gulf Coast Seafood Pavilion.  Now that, would be exciting!  I hear it’s going to be a display of the “positiveness of domestic seafood sustainability.” :D I could only dream of being part of such an event, and I mean as a cook.

Do you have a particularly interesting way of cooking seafood?  I’d love to hear it!
