They do not know I am coming in today, but they know me and my love of mussels as we eat there regularly. They generally cook more mussels when we walk in the door.

FYI ... Alabama Fisheries page on Freshwater Mussels .

Freshwater Mussel Identification

I didn't realize how many different types there are.

Good luck and I hope we get a play by play. Do you have free long distance or free weekend minutes on your cell?

Chinese restaurants have the New Zealand mussels that come in huge frozen lots. You could go to a good Chinese food store and buy a 5lb brick yourself. They're served (here at least) with black bean sauce. Also served steamed and then cold to be eaten with cocktail sauce/soy sauce/horseradish/lemon just like peel your own shrimp. I like them!
