Bubba Shrimp and the prison of Alcatraz

DISCLAIMER : This has nothing to do with Harry Potter.

This weekend I was at San Francisco and happen to go to Bubba Gump Shrimps Co.(This should ring a bell if you have seen 'Forest Gump').This 'restaurant' is based on the same theme , where waiters will be wearing 'Forest Gump' tshirts and the movie constantly and videos about its inside scenes.If you want to stop the waiter you have to put the 'STOP FOREST STOP' sign otherwise it is 'RUN FOREST RUN' which is taken from the movie where Forest's (Tom Hanks) only love asks Forest to run away from the bullies who love harrasing him.

One superb movie , thnaks to the storyline and direction from Steven Spielberg and Forest enacted by Tom Hanks - he is lucky and talented to have pulled over diverse roles he played in 'Road to Perdition' , 'Saving Private Ryan' , 'You have got mail'.His latest flick is superb too - 'The Terminal'.

Coming back to SFO also saw the prison island of Alcatraz.
(This is the same island which most will know as 'The Rock' if they have seen the movie which goes by the same name)Now talk about a prison having such a beautiful view like Alcatraz - You can see the whole of San Francisco coastline , the Fishermans Wharf and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Lovely seafood and ambience at Bubba Shrimp Co.

P.S. - On a creative note we have been successful in preparing Chicken Biryani , Butter Chicken and Paneer Masala.(We does not stand for Vipul alone and includes me)
