This salad epitomizes culinary precision. Simple ingredients like shrimp, scallops, mussels, crabmeat and tender squid are fresh sourced and prepared perfectly into a balanced structure that just works on so many levels. Each of the five pillars of Thai flavor show up in a big way, the intensity high in every bite and the components distinctly discernible. When all five are taken together it is quite a treat for your tongue. The tender flavorful seafood pairs well with the peppery arugula, bitter escarole and sweet carrot. The sweet and sour dressing binds cilantro and red onion together into one spectacular bite after the other. A dash of lime and BOOM – you have quite a treat! This dish makes a very nice lite refreshing meal when accompanied by a soup or dumplings.
