Marvesta Shrimp and Succotash

Cathy Redman just rang to compliment us on the picture of a BT Small Plate, featured in the recent Chesapeake Foodie article about the Marvesta Shrimp Company in Hurlock. And it is a very nice photo, taken this past Saturday night, with Cathy's wonderful fresh limas as a base for those fresh Marvesta shrimp. Kevin has stopped serving the shrimp head-on: too many squeamish people out there didn't want their food looking back at them (and I can't blame them). So now he uses the head as a garnish - deep fries them with a little seasoned flour and, if he can keep Pete from eating them all, he positions one in the middle of the shrimp plate. Everything on the plate is edible...if you dare.
