For something a little unusual, you might want to consider a balsamic vinegar. It is, in my experience, a little sweeter and more complex than other types, and would have some depths that perhaps a plain white vinegar might not. Of course, it's also a little more expensive... but I think it might be worth it (I've used balsamic vinegar on different kinds of greens, especially Oriental ones, and it works nicely). Jonathan
