Not terrible, but indeed a very confused dish.
- The "red curry" as actually green curry and was entirely in the separate dish to the bottom right. The stringy stuff seemed to be a type of crab.
- The rest of the dish was quite predictable, though the grits needed some salt.
- Can't for the life of me understand how the crab curry is supposed to fit with the rest of the dish. I don't doubt that there was at least a vague culinary concept in mind when this item was concocted, but I genuinely want to know what it is.
Seems as conceptually reasonable as the Asian Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap that I had on a regional jet... one too many modifiers... I guess they like vague nods to culturally diverse flavors
