"A West Coast invention variously credited to eating establishments in
San Francisco and Seattle, this careful arrangement of, at minimum,
crab, lettuce, hard-boiled egg and pink "Louis dressing," cropped up
around the start of the 20th century to showcase the Pacific
Northwest's favorite crab, the mighty, the marvelous Dungeness."
Richard made a version for us with a spiced-up dressing (yay) that ended up being enough for 7 luncheon guests, who were not in attendance (Hence the TV remote control). It was delicious, though, and styled in a less-creepy fashion that that shown in the PI (above). That picture reminds me a little of those restaurants whose signs feature pigs in chef's coats carrying trays of roast ham.
