This was very tasty. The barley had kind of a 'slimy' texture when combined with the dressing (as barley will do) which made this a good but not great recipe. The fresh basil is briliant - it adds such a bright, beautiful flavor. It's a very attractive dish with all the colors of the ingredients. Well done, chef & good luck!
