RED LOBSTER® INTRODUCES BIG FESTIVAL OF SHRIMP
Orlando, Fla. (Jan. 3, 2017) – Beginning today, Red Lobster is inviting guests to dive into new and exciting flavours during its Big Festival of Shrimp. The limited-time event gives guests the opportunity to choose two of six new and classic shrimp preparations for just $19.99.

Creamy Shrimp-and-Cheese Linguini – shrimp and linguini tossed in a creamy Cheddar and Parmesan sauce, topped with toasted panko. And, for guests who like both sweet and savoury, New!

In addition to the new, limited-time items, guest can also choose from classic dishes including Red Lobster’s signature Hand-Crafted Savoury Garlic Shrimp, Island Jumbo Coconut Shrimp and the Garlic-Grilled Shrimp Skewer.
“Shrimp is one of the most versatile seafood proteins, making it perfect for seafood lovers to explore new flavours and preparations,” said Dustin Hilinski, Executive Chef and Director, Culinary at Red Lobster. “The Big Festival of Shrimp is a great opportunity for guests to try new combinations, and perhaps even expand their flavour palates as they start the new year.”
