Hi Tim King, My first experience with "drunken shrimp" was on my visit to Singapore. I met a Chinese couple from Singapore on my trip to Scandinavia many, many, years ago. They told me to let them know if I ever plan a trip to Singapore, so when I scheduled myself for a semi-independent tour of SE Asia, I told them which hotel, and on what dates I'd be there. The gentleman picked me up at my hotel, gave me a personal, all day tour of Singapore, and treated me to dinner at a seafood restaurant. The meal included drunken shrimp, and all the other fancy fresh seafood. They took me to the Raffles Hotel afterward for cocktails, and they treated me to a Singapore Sling. I still have that souvenier glass in our china.
Good stuff, that drunken shrimp. c.i.
