Hi, I love your blog. I wonder about this recipe, Mayonnaise walnut shrimp and the other recipe on your site, Honey Walnut Shrimp. They are slightly different but pretty close.
We had a walnut shrimp dish in San Francisco at Firecracker and my husband is still talking about it. I'm making the honey walnut shrimp for him for his birthday dinner tonight because the picture closest resembles what we ate there.
Which do you prefer? Thanks!

I just made this recipe. It is AMAZING. Really, really amazing. I made it for friends and they raved that it was the best food they've had in nyc!
I had this dish growing up, but didn't know the name of it and my Chinese father has since passed, so I can't ask: do you happen to know the Chinese name for this dish or what region it's from?
Really great recipe- thanks!!

PLEASE do not try and heat oil to boiling state. You are asking for trouble. Please revise the recipe.
