The Review: Blue Plate Oysterette
Know something we don't?
Forrest, Jenny, Mama, and Lieutenant Dan are alive and well at this shrine to cinema’s most famous shrimping duo. Framed stills from the movie, a down-on-the-bayou décor, and music spanning Forrest’s era add to the art-directed feel of the restaurant, down to details like the drink menu, which appears on a ping-pong paddle. Shrimp specials, not surprisingly, dominate the menu. The Shrimper’s Heaven is a catch-all of fried shrimp, tempura shrimp, coconut shrimp, and chilly shrimp. Southern favorites like Bourbon Street mahi mahi, fried chicken, and Dixie-style baby back ribs also make an appearance. Feeling full? Just flip the vintage license plate mounted at the table from “Run Forrest Run” to “Stop Forrest Stop.”
