  Peeling shrimps at home. A practice which is abondoned not that long ago. At the moment Dutch shrimps are peeled in Morocco. Too expensive to do it in the Netherlands.

  Hi, I'm an admin for a group called La Belle Epoque ca.1890 - ca.1914 incl. ArtDeco and ArtNouveau, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

  Also the peeling in Morocco is being gradually abandoned. Shrimps are now automatically peeled

  This may not be Christie's -- it may actually be Gaido's, a different Houston seafood restaurant. See the thread here:

  As I recall, the sign was posted on Galveston Island in front of Gaido's Restaurant in the early sixties. My father and I cruised the seawall in the family Ford Falcon station wagon looking for green water in order to catch speckled trout on hook and line at dawn. We used live shrimp for bait on treble hooks. Eventually the salt-water slosh from the bait bucket rusted through the floorboard of the car.
