Specialty Mantis Shrimp

　　Specialty Mantis Shrimp is a famous dish from Zhuhai. This dish is meticulously prepared: first, the hard shell on the back of the mantis shrimp is cut off, then a slit is made in the middle, and the restaurant’s secret mix of brackish-water shrimp paste is stuffed inside. A layer of fried vermicelli is added on top. Once the oil is heated, the stuffed mantis shrimp is deep-fried until golden brown. It is served with a noodle-made net and a statue of a fisherman, giving the dish added cultural character.
