MACARONI and CHESSE and YAMS????

Well, for me, personally. I perfer, french fries, as a side dish with jump shrimp. And, I never heard of someone, ordering ,"yams"!, as a side dish, when ordering this particular food item?

ive never tried it with yams, but, that doesnt sound so bad....they are great with French Fires but, also with rice.....actually, shrimp goes good with tons of things.......especially lobster!

I like french fries and cole slaw with my shrimp. But people are different, so whatever floats their boat.

french fries

Geez! Sounds like she'd eat fried shrimp and peanut butter sandwiches too!

I've only ever eaten it with fries, steamed veggies and/or fresh buttered bread (or the garlic teabiscuits they have at Red Lobster - yum)!

Leave the yams for Thanksgiving and Mac & Cheese? That's just a heart attack waiting to happen!! LOL

Nastiest thing I ever heard.

That's like eating a Cheese Burger and Lima Beans-LOL

Steak. Giant fried shrimp IS a side order, not a main dish to me.

French Fries are the only logical side dish with Fried Fish or Seafood

I'd say you're right, I worked in a seafood restaurant for 10 years and all meals came with fries or baked potato. Most of our customers ordered fries with seafood and baked potato with steak. I've never heard of anyone eating yams with seafood until now.

I've had Mac & Cheese with it a couple of times and a secondary side along with fries. YAMS?

What restaurant did you guys go eat at Solomon?

I didn't go with her, I heard her ordering it over the phone when I was talking to her.

i've never ordered fried shrimp myself, but i have gone out to dinner with my family when they order it. my parents usually get either a baked potato with it or mashed potatoes. my sisters usually opt for french fries. same goes for all seafood dishes they get. macaroni & cheese and yams seems like a very weird combo with seafood.
