Shrimp lovers should not miss out on a dish like this one. This dish hails from the waters off Florida's coast, although the Yucatán Peninsula is further south on the Gulf of Mexico. The garlic, butter, and special sauce give it a kick that keeps diners coming back for more. Serve it with crusty bread and white wine, or an icy cold beer. With every bite, you can almost imagine the dazzling blue waters of the Gulf and the sea breeze. Don't forget the huge, tender shrimp.
