The chicken in this salad was a bit dry. I think it would have been better if it was cooked in a sauce or marinade.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have enjoyed it more if it was less sweet.

The dressing was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would have enjoyed it more if it was lighter.

This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could use some more spices or herbs.

I love the crunchy texture of the water chestnuts in this salad! They add a nice contrast to the soft noodles and tender chicken.
