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

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as the picture. The mussels were overcooked and the dressing was too oily.

This salad is a bit too salty for my taste.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my mussels turned out tough and chewy. The dressing was also too sour.
