Probably pretty much. The market restaurant fries it Calabash
style--a light, almost batter coating, the Mayflower does a
heavy breading. I prefer the former.

I might prefer the former, too... :)

Probably so; the breading doesn't really do anything positive
for the shrimp.

And potentially totally covering up the taste of the shrimp...

We tend to not like to do anything with shrimp other than a simple preparation, e.g. steaming with onions and a bit of Old Bay.

We do buy the breaded butterfly shrimp on occasion... the cats
particularly like the tails as a treat while we eat the rest... More
generally, I'll get the frozen shrimp and add a handful of them to
congee (asian rice/ginger soup), or cook them up with garlic butter and
a bit of shredded cheese for scampi...

Eating out, we will get steamed shrimp (appetizer?) but not things
like kung pao shrimp or shrimp curry which (to us) totally cover up
the taste of the shrimp.

Fu's shrimp and scallop teriyaki is good at not hiding the flavor of the seafood... his tempura shrimp is pretty good, too... ;)

Actually, I'd say the same for most seafoods with the
exception of fried fish and chips.

When one is paying premium prices for the seafood, it's nice to be able
to taste it... (G)

This dish might be good for some, but I think the shrimp would be
lost.

... "What would Paula Deen do?" Wrap it in bacon, bread it, deep-fry it.

You don't eat the tails??? Some would say that is the best part.

We now always buy the wild caught gulf shrimp from Wegmans. They are
also our source for salmon.

I often do... but the cats really do like them, so I forgo the pleasure
for their sake... (G) Except for when I forget and eat it without
thinking... (G)

Wegmans does take care that their seafood is fresh and properly
sourced... :) Makes for good tasting, and safe, fish and seafood... :)
