With shrimp, grapefruit, herbs, and “nuoc cham”, topped with chopped peanuts. $9.95

Nuoc cham is a Vietnamese sauce usually made with chilies, garlic, fish sauce, lime juice and sugar. It’s salty-sweet and so yummy. This green papaya salad was good, but I think it was too watery. I loved the addtional of grapefruit though.
