Inspired by our trip to Spitzer's Corner we decided to try replicating the salmon dish. Todd had previously randomly picked up cedar planks at Costco (where else) so we added salmon smothered in capers and a couple of lemons and we were off!
Using low heat on the grill it only took a little while before the salmon was tender (and the plank was charred).
As an accompaniment we went with asparagus and campanara tomatoes tossed in lemon artichoke bruchetta and then broiled the old fashioned way in the oven.
Both the veggies and the salmon came out well, but surprisingly the grilled lemons made the dish. I wouldn't have bothered to grill them, except that I checked the description of the dish on the Spitzer's Corner menu which includes "grilled Meyer lemon", so I threw them on to the cedar plank too. I'm glad I did because the lemons came out warm and fragrant and went well on the salmon and the veggies.
