I was wondering if anybody remembers Janda shrimp. It was a tiny store just off of Harlem on Cermak. It was a very busy place on Friday's when you couldn't eat meat on Friday. They would have people waiting in line sometime. Of course as an old memory it was the best shrimp I ever had, especially with the hot cocktail sauce that my brother and I would try and see who could eat the most and have it burn up your nose.  I wish everything was as good as I remember.

On the block with Janda shrimp was  DeVito's Pizza (I think)  and a bar that I used to stop at once in awhile. Nothing else is coming to mind right now.

Thanks I do remember,the bar was always a convenient stop before buying the shrimp.
