These shrimp lollipops were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if they had been cooked for a shorter amount of time.

The grilled shrimp lollipops were a bit too spicy for my taste, but the almond sauce was delicious. I would recommend using less chili pepper in the sauce if you don't like spicy food.
