These chains serve golden-fried seafood with flavorful, zesty Cajun dipping sauce.
Fried shrimp and remoulade is a classic meal or snack at many Southern and Cajun restaurants, perfect for those who like a little heat with their seafood. This French-Creole style spicy condiment is popular for being the savory, more spicy cousin to classic tartar sauce commonly served in restaurants, and every bit as delicious, if not more. If you’re craving really good remoulade with your golden-fried shrimp, here are four chains to add to your list.
