Everyone who visits Oahu will inevitably go to the North Shore. Once you’re up in the North Shore, you have a pick of many shrimp “trucks.” For me personally, I prefer Romy’s. I don’t think the shrimp is anything special that you couldn’t get anywhere else – I go to Romy’s for the prawns. Not just the regular prawns, the bambucha ones! The only prawns I will eat there are the prawns that come with the number 5. For me, it’s worth the wait and price. This dish is not for the weak – they are huge prawns with huge heads. For me, who loves the shrimp head as much as the body…it’s heavenly. The prawns for the number 5 isn’t always there – you either get there too early or they sell out too fast. So when I do get the Prawns, it’s all the better!
