Nobody (except youknowwho) can eat 50 eggs � but how about 50 shrimp dishes? That's what Caf� Nola (414 S. Second St., 215-574-1687) has got going till the end of September. Butterfinger Coconut Shrimp? Shrimp Cacciatore? Flamingo Shrimp? Spicy Voodoo Shrimp? Done. There are giveaways on tap, too � gift certificates, Mardi Gras swag, etc.

Check chef Nick Ventura's shrimp menu after the jump. It lists 39 dishes, but Nola hits that 50 mark by offering 10+ specials on a nightly basis.

where are they getting their shrimp? I sure hope with all those wonderful dishes they are buying REAL Louisiana Wild-caught Gulf Shrimp. seriously.

Sometimes nothing at all is a real cool hand.
