It's funny you ask that question, even the dozen shrimp truckers admit thare is just not enough "local" shrimp available. Some claim they get their shrimp from "within the state" but they don't say from where

There is an aquaculture operation growing shrimp up near Honokaa that I know of.
Assume the best and ask questions.

We got "take-out" from Giovanni's this evening. Picked up a menu this afternoon, and then called in our order this evening and went in to pick it up. We also had the garlic shrimp. It was dee-lish!! Large portions of large shrimp. Loved it and hope this place sticks around.
