It's basically coleslaw but with a slightly sweet vinaigrette and some crunchy (uncooked) ramen noodles broken up and mixed in. I'm not a salad guy, but I dig it. Even worse for you, though, is their fantastic macaroni salad. I usually skip the cabbage and get double mac. I guess the consolation of doing this at home is portion control. Anyway, if I had to have barley, I'd probably find a recipe for beef barley soup. If you can’t do carbs, I’d go with the cabbage salad they have at The Loft.

Only caveat for me is the use of rice as side dish -- it's carbohydrate city, and must be avoided. I would recommend the use of a slow carb such as barley (which can be cooked in your rice cooker as well !!) or nice sauteed vegetables in olive oil. They soak up the juices pretty nicely.
