Can I ask why salt and sugar? How does it enhance the flavour?

We generally just steam them

It is a very general kitchen rule. Everything sweet is enhanced by a trace of salt. Everything salty or sour is enhanced by a trace of sugar.

Of course take that "everything" with a pinch of salt.

Probably peeled in Morocco. They send the Nordsee-Shrimps there for peeling and ship them back to sell as local product.

Nope, caught that morning and the shelling was all ours - mind you, this was a while ago - decades. They were almost sweet . . . ah, the times of no cholesterol!

(You serious about sending them for shelling to Morocco?)

One of the more upmarket modes of transport in which city?

At a guess i'd say Manila?

Googling Greenhills Shopping Center reveals Manila indeed.

Nice shot.

^ Cebu ?

manilla for sure.got a watch stolen off me one one of those many moons ago.It was a cheap one i bought of a vendor a couple of days before.

Yes, the picture was taken in Manila and more accurately Quezon City.

The hotel I stayed at was situated in the area and I took this picture from the hotel room.

What part or suburb of Manila do you think the high rise in the background is?

Metro Manilla ?

I believe no.

It's the Silom/ Suriwongse equivalent that you will find in Manila and has a famous street full of bars.
