A CLOSER TASTE
About the dish
Veal and an Asian-style sauce give this salad a fuller direction. The printed menu marks it as hot or piquant, so ask about the intensity before ordering if you are sensitive to heat. Its warm serving style sets it apart from cold vegetable salads.
Flavour and serving
The salad already includes meat. Choose the rest of your meal with your appetite in mind, or include it among several starters for the table.
The meat and warm serving make this useful to compare with Olivier, which also lists veal. Here, an Asian-style sauce leads the dish; Olivier follows the Stolichny reference. If choosing one salad, consider serving temperature and accompaniment. If trying both, keep the dressings separate so you can notice the character of each dish.
What to try alongside
To compare warm and cold salad styles, add the green salad with avocado. Taste the two dressings separately before combining bites from both dishes.
Try it with
If you have a food allergy or intolerance, tell your waiter before ordering. Ask the restaurant team about the full ingredients and possible substitutions.
