fantastic seafood salad,

"The reason that this Silver Noodle Seafood Salad is so fantastic is actually two fold. One because of the quality of ingredients....and two because of the chef/author who developed the recipe out of her love for food, life in general, and more importantly the generous make up she displays as a human being.
This little story begins as I was looking to find a alternate for spending $12.50 every day for lunch on a dish I couldn't live without. A wonderful new Thai Food restaurant moved into town, and as fate would have it, "a salad appeared on the menu in front of me," that I had never heard of, let alone tried. My server person was in fact the Chef/owner as well, and humbly instilled faith in me as to her (personal) preparation for this delicacy. Needless to say I literally found myself returning everyday for over a month to get my daily Silver Noodle Seafood Salad fix. This obviously became excessive behavior for various reasons, for which I will spare you the pain of explanation.
After multitudes of unsuccessful attempts at research via Internet, carrier pigeon and the like, about.com and your good friend (and my new found savior) Darlene came to the rescue. After waaaaaay to much time patiently counseling me with my plight exclaimed, (via email) "you know if you can give me some semblance of a description of the dish I will develop a recipe." Yeah Right!!!!!
The rest is history... I have broken the vicious cycle, and my life is back to normal. I now have a much improved recipe over the original Silver Noodle Seafood Salad...... and the bottom line on the ledger sheet is now allowing me to actually take vacations to Thailand rather than merely eat lunch at a local eatery on a daily basis.
The key to this overwhelming success of this recipe starts with the quality of ingredients which Darlene chooses (like all her recipes) and ends with the simplistic step by step instruction (which even I can follow) to produce the most wonderful piece of edible artwork (photo included) that is frankly........to live for.
I think you will be pleased."
