Have you guys ever had the chinese dish Honey Walnut Shrimp? It is sweet, but not as sweet as "coconut shrimp" It's battered and fried then coated with a sweet mayo type sauce with sesame seeds and candied toasted walnuts. The sweet is mostly in the walnuts. If it's done correctly the sauce doesn't make the batter soggy. I never could understand why it's so expensive though, usu about $16+, but it's so good! Sweet, salty, creamy, crunchy.
