Thanks for the butterfly shrimp recipe!We have been looking for the dipping 
sauce that we used to get as kids at The China Garden,King of Prussia,Pa. 
They called it almond sauce ,sweet and sour,thin ,topped with finely topped 
almonds and scallions. Making your shrimp tonight,yum. Thanks.

Hi Lisa,

The China Garden Restaurant in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, closed in the 1990s. There are restaurants by that name in places nearby, such as Willow Grove and Kennett Square, but I could find no connection between them and no "almond sauce" recipe from any restaurant with that name. There are several "almond sauce" recipes on the web, but I could not find any indication that one of them might be similar to the one you want. I'll post this for reader input.
