- One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle is located near my office. What luck! It is called Place Pigalle and the owner, Bill Frank, is a fine cook in his own right. He and his chef, Hugh Kohl, developed a dish which I believe is typical of the great things going on in the Pacific Northwest.
- The use of mustard seed here is very creative and delicious. You can also see the influence of the many ethnic groups which have come to Seattle, especially the Chinese and Thai influences. You simply must go to the restaurant and try this dish. FOR THE PASTA
- Heat a large frying pan and add in the butter, ginger, mustard seed, and cashews, and saute/fry for about 2 min. Add in the precooked pasta, coconut, and cilantro, and cook over medium heat. Toss or possibly saute/fry this mix till all ingredients are warm. Set aside, covered, to keep hot. FOR THE SHRIMP Saute/fry
- Heat another large frying pan and add in the oil and ginger. Saute/fry for 30 seconds. Add in the shrimp, scallions, and lime juice, and cook over medium-high heat till the shrimp just changes color (a few min). Add in salt and pepper. Serve over the warm pasta and garnish with lime segments and cilantro leaves.
- This is a great main course if you serve it with a green salad and a fresh-fruit tray.
