I would kill for some live prawns...  it's probably a common sight in your neck of the woods, but I have fond memories of a restaurant in Singapore that had maybe 30 different tanks of live seafood and the "fisherman" would go out with a net when an order came in - the prawns would literally jump out of the tank!

 

There are indeed many such places here, too. Fresh (as in live) fish and seafood is de rigueur in many parts of Asia.

 

This one is on the street where I live. The customer goes up to the tanks and points out exactly which specimen of whatever it is they want. Then a member of staff fishes it out.
