I read this earlier on the access Vegas site. I have not had the "new" sauce yet, but will let everyone know in March when I go...
The Golden Gate has closed their deli to accommodate their expansion. While they are still serving the shrimp cocktail in their Dupar's restaurant 24/7, guess what: The price has been quietly raised to $2.99. This is NOT the only change. The recipe of the cocktail sauce has been altered! It is less sweet and much more spicy. Not "hot sauce" spicy but certainly plenty of tang.
I don't mind spicy food, but there was something special about the ketchup-based recipe that they've used for as long as I can remember. That special taste that is so embedded in many, many of our memories with having the shrimp at Golden Gate. A couple times a month, I'll actually crave it and go down and enjoy it! I can deal with the $2.99 -- it is still a bargain -- but bring back the sauce that we all know and love!
