An amazing bean salad (more than one type in there) from Lincoln restaurant in NYC and a delicious heirloom tomato salad with manchego from Perilla restaurant also in NYC.

I've never seen a layered salad like this. It looks beautiful but I was just wondering how the heck can you scoop some of each layer out of there.


That looks disgusting. I imagine the first few people are going to get a big blob of Mayo and bacon bits

Agree on homemade Greek salad. I also love any salad involving grilled romaine - we often grill romaine at home and just season with oil, lemon, salt, pepper and garlic and then top with a bit of parm cheese. So good.

The salad that I probably purchase most out (for lunch at work) is the Fattoush salad from Tatte. Absolutely love it.

It’s more about the freshness of ingredients than ingredients themselves sometimes. Like a simple tomato salad made with fresh tomatoes from my MIL’s garden is so tasty compared to a lot of salads at restaurants.

My first instinct was a spinach salad with roasted beets, orange wedges, and goat cheese.

But PPs got me thinking about Greek salad or Caprese with backyard tomatoes, and now I can't decide.

I also love a BLT salad with chopped lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, homemade croutons, crumbled bacon, and a mayo based dressing.

Niçoise. Or anything with arugula. I also love a type of salad from back home. We call it rampon, doucette or mâche. Never seen it here though for some reason.

shredded carrot, arugula, radicchio, frisée and walnuts. Shave some Parmesan on top and dress with salt, pepper, oil and red wine vinegar

I think this needs subcategories: salad as the main course or salad as a side
