5 Minutes Melon/Orange Salad

It was one summer afternoon when I was at UTC Mall in San Diego, and we were trying to get something to eat from the food court. I went for some Mexican food and was walking out when I saw this colorful fruit salad in the French cafe and a lady was carrying it out ahead of me. I took a peek at her salad and saw watermelon and orange with some mint on it. The image of the dark pink and yellow with bits of green here and there stuck in my head and I tried to recreate the salad to my taste and served it on a skewer with Indian food. This salad was spicy, salty and sweet.My entry to
