We had a very similar salad at the Halekulani Hotel, Oahu. One time, the slices were replaced with chunks of the avocado and papyrus. I'm sure, anyone who eats the two foods has had experience of slices, chunks or guacamole. Consistent flavors but different textures My point...Michael is a great resource for great foods! This recipe can me used as "part of" a buffet or can be used as the entree itself (maybe with shrimp/lobster to be accompanied by italian ciabatta bread and a creamy, smooth wine...textures galore!

I made this salad exactly as directed and the family devoured it. This was my first Michael Chiarello recipe and there will be many more if all of his recipes are this good.
