Chefs hate it but this is what peak salad looks like.

that’s because it got made by a 55 year old diner cook with a pill problem who is making like $13/hr

Salads. Salads are nice. At least they didn’t plop some weird, pink, rolled-up slabs of sketchy meat on top of … Oh dear, never mind.

I’ll be honest, I love pizza place salad. Gimme that untrimmed iceberg butt and an inch-thick slice of watery pink tomato. Gimme an entire red onion in haphazard chunks. I love it.

I always order a garlic bread with cheese with that and build my own grinder with a smallish salad on side

NGL I genuinely hate restaurant salads, they’re always cut in such a way that the ONLY thing you can get on your fork is a giant chunk of lettuce and you have to eat all the lettuce before you can fit the rest of the salad onto your fork.
Like, I know nobody’s paying for prep cooks to spend time chopping salads for chopped salad so I’m not even blaming the guy who made the salad. He gets yelled at for being slow if he spends more than .06 seconds on prep. It’s that companies realize they don’t have to bother providing quality or value anymore.

Yes. Salads and the produce that goes in them are the lowest priority of an Italian restaurant IME. They dgaf about salads. They just want all of our focus to be on the quality of the pasta, pizza dough, sauces, bread, and Tiramisu. Salads are just seen as obligatory, but not important. 😅

look if you don’t get the heart of lettuce and get that big old nasty chunk of inedible junk from the middle of the head, how do you know you’re eating a salad in an Italian place.
If your lettuce is still green, isn’t entirely faded to white (or Brown, looking at you Olive Garden) Your onion is in clearly defined instead of hacked that with those little safety kid scissors, not to mention olives cut and patterns you didn’t even know olives could be in shape of…
Again how do you know that you’re at an Italian place. You want that nice lettuce you’re probably trying to eat cabbage at a Korean place. Definitely not salad from the Italian place.

It’s a chopped salad, not a diced salad

Two dressings! my caveman butt is all over it, chunky or not.

If your salad doesn’t look like this, that $9 slice is ass.
I spend most summers at a place at the Jersey Shore and there is this place nearby that eventually inevitably we’ll get a meal from, takeout. And each entree comes with a salad similar to the photo (not with the meat though luckily). And so with 4 entrees you have these four huge salads and it just too much food. Usually 3 of them go directly into the fridge.
I’ve dismantled those salads and cut up the various veg & reassembled it into a salad worth eating for dinner the following day. I keep meaning to ask to skip the dressing when we order because their dressing isn’t good.

You could make your own salad at home, the way you like. Or just keep ordering restaurant salad and whining about it. Suit yourself.

Found the giant tomato and scattered olives, this is definitely [from a pizza place](https://youtu.be/JgJUbmGDc6k?si=RTekBVXGSfhWPuLM)
