If you get an avocado shrimp salad in a restaurant around it is usually
a peeled half avocado with a spoonful of shrimp salad where the pit was.
It is usually pretty disappointing. When my wife ordered one in a
hotel restaurant near in Verdun France it was an entire avocado sliced
and laid in a circle around a pile of shrimp salad and a dozen peel and
eat shrimp on top. It was supposed to be the appetizer, but by the time
she finished it she was stuffed, and it was too late to cancel the steak
that she had ordered.
