Londoners....great SALADS!!!

I'm a salad fan...big time.  i love a gigantic salad and can eat them every day...but i'm lazy and hate to make them every day.  some are ok at places like EAT, Pret, etc. but it's amazing how unhealthy they can make a salad.  i've even been bummed with the assortment of salads at dinner-meal salads.  i'm sick of a few pieces of lettuce and fatty dressings.

Well last night we went to a place called Rocket (near bond street).  The menu was full of so many interesting items it was impossible for me to choose!

i had the 'surf and turf salad' which was: Shrimp, squid and seared beef over lettuce in a lemon dressing.  it was INSANELY good.  My only thing is i would probabally ask them to grill not fry the squid and shrimp-it was really lightly battered but the whole watching the weight thing counts

ANYWAY if you're in london on a consulate visit or anything.....TOTALLY give it a try for dinner.  It's awesome.

Yummm... i agree with you, a good salad is hard to find.

I wouldn't normally recommend Beefeater, which is a middle-of-the-road chain restaurant all over the UK....  however, they do have a salmon caesar salad which is quite good!  Really nice crunchy lettuce, reasonably authentic-ish Caesar dressing, topped with a grilled salmon fillet.   

Amy that sounds so yummy!  Yeah, why do they batter the stuff is beyond me!!!  But still, yummmmmm!!!

well, shoot.  we were just in that area yesterday looking for something to eat.  we could have gone there!

oh no mindy!!!!!!!!   

you missed out, it's so mega good.

mmmm...sounds like a good place to go...I'll be there!

I guess I'll have to try it out when I am around the area.
