I'm not a big fan of cumin, but I really enjoyed this salad. The vinaigrette was flavorful and the salad was very refreshing.

I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less cumin in the vinaigrette.
