Shrimp Scampi is like a little Italian joke. Most Americans have no idea that scampi means shrimp. Incidentially, shrimp here in the United States looks and tastes slightly different from shrimp in Spain. What you call gambas, we call langostinos. Langostas which is very popular in New England resembles bogavantes in Spain.
