A nice but casual restaurant just off the main drag of the lovely resort town of Pismo Beach. Don't think of ordering anything but the Bucket For Two (you can get a bucket for one but bring a date). You get 3/4 of a pound of 3 choices that change daily (Snow Crab, Dungeness Crab and Slipper Lobster were all excellent) plus Cajun sausage, red potatoes and corn on the cob. The bucket arrives at the table just after the hot dinner rolls and drawn butter, homemade mustard sauce and cocktail sauce. The waiter dumps it on the paper table cloth and says "Banzai". The full satisfaction of the plethora sunk in as the plastic bib came off and the bill for two, with three glasses of wine from the excellent list came to $85.
