Squid Makes it to Salad Quest ‘08



Elizabeth nominated this one and I could not wait to get there to try it. My kids are the WAC day camp today so I took my husband to lunch at Catch. This Crispy Calamari + Florida Pink Grapefruit salad ($8.50) was yummy. The dressing is a little spicy with a hint of red Thai curry. You can just see the tangy grapefruit nestled in there. And the fried calamari was perfect. But there's the rub. Fried? On a Salad? Where's the virtue?

Well, virtue or no, I'd order it again. Though next time I plan to try the Ho Chi Min salad (mandarin oranges, Thai basil). That looked pretty delectable too.

So this unusual squid salad is on the ballot. (Yes! There will be voting. Stay tuned.) Unless you nominate something to throw it off. Anyone else know of a good salad? There are prizes if you nominate the winner!

Just put your recommendations in the comments. If you really get into it, though, you could send us a photo and a review and we'll post it for you.

  1. Dag! Christina you beat me to it. After reading Liz's post this morning I was trying to figure a way we could sneak to Catch for lunch. I'm so crazy about that salad the waitress fills out the order as soon as I walk in. It's the best salad in town, hands down.

  2. [...] you are there to make this a more filling meal. You can even add the Calamari that is so yummy on my previous Catch [...]
