I got really excited about this salad when I found it on the new Phil’s menu online. The description sounds so close to the incredibly famous shrimp remoulade at Pinetta’s that didn’t make it back on the menu when that store reopened. I even sold myself a little conspiracy theory that maybe the old men were related, or one stole the recipe from the other, but alas, despite a very similar list of ingredients, this salad, while nice, comes nowhere close to the legendary Pinetta’s remoulade. Too bad, but Phil’s has added a number of interesting new menu items so it’s probably worth a cruise by at lunch to check it out. And there’s always free saltines and butter at the bar. Very definition of old school.
