2nd in a ‘Best’ series
The best shrimp I had was at the No Name Restaurant on the pier in Boston around 1992. It was in a garlic-white wine sauce with carrots and cauliflower, but what really stood out was how tender it was.
My parents, who love seafood, were up visiting us while we were in grad school. My wife, who did not like seafood then, ordered a hamburger steak and got an openly-skeptical, but good-natured, look from the waiter. I have been back to Boston a few times since but have not been back to any of the pier restaurants since they are kind of tricky to get to. I might also note that Anthony’s Pier 4 was out of our price range at the time.
