    LRS is the best frozen food IMO. Our fish are spoiled from that stuff. Great product and the owner is a really nice guy.

    that food is awesome, i believe it is the reason i have had success with idol and regal. plus the owner is from my home town. he had sent my pm a few months ago thanking my for my comments about his food. i agree, really nice guy.
