Pandalus platyceros, also called California spot prawn (as well as Santa Barbara spot prawn and Monterey Bay spot prawn [2]) or Alaskan prawn, is a shrimp of the genus Pandalus. [1] Spot shrimp are a large shrimp found in the North Pacific. They range from the clean waters off Unalaska Island, Alaska, to San Diego.
The market is open 5 days a week. Saturdays have the most diverse catch, where live crab, sea urchin, fish, spot prawns, snails, spiny lobster and sea cucumbers are available depending on the season. Each day the fishermen launch their boats at around 2 AM, returning at around 6 to 9 AM with that day's catch. [2] [3]
The Sardine Factory was likely the first restaurant in Monterey to serve spot prawns (known locally as Monterey Bay spot prawns though they range from San Diego to Alaska). When Cutino was approached about purchasing them, he was skeptical as his father had been a local fisherman and yet he was utterly unfamiliar with them. [ 1 ]
The restaurant's prices have gone up over the past 70 years. However, it remains one of the most affordable places to eat in town. Most menu items cost less than $10.
