Lettuce, wrapped

We went to a private dinner before the Ballet Austin performance of Sarah's Songs last night. The salad had a creative presentation -- the crouton was wrapped around the romaine lettuce. You had to tip it over and break off pieces. The ballet performance was magnificent, by the way. A very nice evening. 

Hail, Caesar!

Here is my stab at making a Caesar salad. Linda said it was tasty! White anchovies on top and shaved Parmesan.

Caesar needs Anchovies

A good Caesar Salad deserves some anchovies. Jeffrey's serves delicious white ones and we asked for extra on a recent visit.

Beet salad is upbeat

I love this beet salad that was served at Peche the other night. Lots of contrasts in flavors and textures. Very tasty.

Hail Caesar!

I had this tasty Caesar Salad at North Italia the other night. Loved it. Very cheesy and just tangy enough. Spot on!

Beet salad -- hard to beat

I was out lunching with a friend the other day and she ordered this beautiful beet salad.

Mad Greens!

These young folks were working away at the new Mad Greens cafe in our neighborhood the other day. Nice place for lunch -- wraps, salads, etc. They were very efficient and the salads were tasty.

Nicoise Salad

This toothsome delight was really tasty and just filling enough. I ordered it at a local restaurant called Tolouse in the Domain center. I enjoy ordering a Nicoise Salad and seeing the interpretation different restaurants give the dish.
