Life's like a box of Chocolates, you never know what you're gonna to get... especially in the Palmetto State

You've heard the saying "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get" quoted from the famous movie Forrest Gump. Well remember Forrest's friend during the war Bubba and his dream of having a shrimp business? Well yea his dream is a reality not only here in Charleston,SC but also in other locations up and down the east coast. Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. has been providing fresh seafood and a good atmosphere to the people of Charleston for many years now, and if you haven't heard of the famous movie... then I recommend you go to the movie store and rent it and also go to the restaurant to learn more about Bubba's dream. Now I didn't come here to lecture you on not seeing the movie, so keep reading and I'll share my great dish and perfect cocktail at this prime movie location.

First with the cocktail. Now what kind of blogger would I be if I didn't start off with the cocktail. Served in the most southern way possible, in a mason jar, I present to you Bubba Gump's Poolside Punch. Served ice cold in a mason jar and garnished with an orange wedge, I give you one perfectly mixed cocktail. 

Now typically I don't order cocktails like this in the middle of December... but when it is sunny and 75 (basically summer), obviously I'm gonna indulge and grab myself a summer time drink. 

Alright alright, time to move on to the food. Keep reading and see what seafood sensation I devoured and just possibly I will make your decision as well.

Now tell me, what sounds better than shrimp, pasta, cheese and bread crumbs baked in the oven in a cast iron skillet? Cant come up with anything?? Yea cause their is nothing better than shrimp, pasta and cheese baked in the oven with bread crumbs till it becomes golden brown and crispy. 

Shrimp Shack Mac & Cheese is a must at this tourist hot spot. As the menu describes it: Southern cookin’ meets the sea! Noodles mixed with sautéed Shrimp, Cheddar, Monterey Jack and Parmesan Cheese. Topped with golden brown Bread Crumbs. Is your mouth watering yet? Mine is and Im dying for some of this right now (but it is currently 11pm at night, and I'm pretty sure they are closed). 

Now Bubba Gump's have other fan favorites like a Shrimp Po'Boy, Mama Blue's Southern Charmed Fried Shrimp, and Lt. Dan's Surf and Turf. Choose anything and you definitely can't go wrong. Need help with a recommendation? Either look at my suggestions (which I would never steer you wrong) or ask your server, but no matter what you choose you won't go wrong.


So have I made your decision on your next meal choice? I sure hope so! The next time you are wondering where to go for a good meal, sweet treat or homemade recipe, come right here and this southern girl will take care of you.
