  Very unusual and really very nice. I had to add more oil to the dressing, as it came up as more of a paste, but it was lovely. I had never eaten palm hearts before, but they were very tasty. Was slightly wary of the fried garlic slices over the top, but they were fantastic and added a real interesting crunch to the salad. Served alongside a grilled pork tenderloin in chipotle sauce (also on this site) and it was a really fantastic meal.
