Richardson, TX: Shuck N' Jive (REVISITED)

Another visit to Shuck N Jive becaues it was close by. We decided to do take-out instead.

We both ordered the Catfish and Shrimp Dinner for about $30.00 total. Let's just say, NEVER AGAIN and we will only stick with the crablegs and maybe the oysters.

Catfish- One (1) big fillet --we would've let this slide but the breading slid (no pun intended) right off as I was breaking a piece off plus the fish was kind of tough. Epic Fail. I am from the South, home of the catfish (Mississippi) and this was TERRIBLE. I had a catfish-fillet-shaped piece of breading on one side and a rubberry fish fillet on the other side of my plate. The breading wasn't even good...didn't even look like cornmeal to me...

Hushpuppy- that's right, hushpuppy singular. One whole, normal-size hushpuppy and it was mediocre.

Shrimp- Okay, the 6 shrimp were good..not bad but not OMG delicious but good. They had a good crunch and was seasoned well.

Fries- I didn't think french fries could be ruined but it tasted really weird---not like potatoes but like something old.

Slaw- They refer to this as "Cajun Slaw" --nothing was cajun about it and it was bleh. The serving size was small, the slaw dressing was not seasoned very well and it did not taste like "cajun".

Okay, now the Red Beans and Rice were pretty good and I'll give them that.

And that was it. We substituted one RB&Rice for the slaw. All of the above for about $15.00 per plate....NOT WORTH IT!!
