Even if you’ve had Shrimp & Grits before, you’ve probably never had any like these. Deeply spiced, earthy shrimp, garlic, and peppers with bacon. The dish is fantastic on its own – but this has a twist – it’s drizzled with a Cajun Gastrique.

“What the heck is Cajun Gastrique?” you might ask. At least I asked. The waitress was stumped and came back with “a reduction of vinegar and Cajun spices.” Ok, I thought to myself, “La di da. I’m going to be sorry I ordered Cajun in South Dakota,” but ordered Shrimp and Grits with a Cajun Gastrique anyway!
