Grilled Seafood Salad | Grilled wild Sockeye salmon, sea scallops, tiger prawns. Served on mache greens, creamy lemon poppy seed dressing, Full size 17
Scallops were nicely seared to perfection. The seared scallops and tiger prawns were grilled to the right texture. The size of these tiger prawns - well, the name of tiger prawns does not fail here. Unfortunately, this dish is not perfect. The sockeye salmon was either grilled too long or it was not fresh at the time of grilling. The finished product of this fish was way too dry. For someone that would only eat seafood like myself, this salmon was not acceptable. The bed of mache greens was very fresh and crisp. I guess overall, this dish was saved by its scallops and TIGER prawns.
