These tempura shrimps were a disaster. The batter was too thick and the shrimp were overcooked. The wasabi mayonnaise was too spicy.

These tempura shrimps were a bit too oily for my taste, but they were still delicious. The batter was light and crispy, and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. The wasabi mayonnaise was a great dipping sauce.

These tempura shrimps were a bit too oily for my taste. The batter was also a bit too thick. However, the shrimp themselves were cooked perfectly.
