if you go to Monkey Bridge

(which is a Vietnamese restaurant in Ballard)
you should give very serious thought to getting the "coconut curry crepe" dish, which is a crispy crepe-tortilla enriched with bacon, filled with shrimp and things, and then you take all that and wrap it in lettuce leaves with basil and pickled root vegetables. And, if you're not done with putting food-in-food and food inside food, there's a dipping sauce.

Sometimes it makes me really sad that there are whole classes of GLORIOUS FOODS (eg lots of Asian things such as much much much dim sum) that I can't enjoy b/c of shellfish. I once was even so crazed for a sticky rice ball thing that I picked out all of the teeny tiny shrimps and hoped for the best.

This sounds like another such de-shrimping-worthy dish.
