"Your Order: Chopped Salad La Scala is a restaurant best known for its lunchtime Bravo celebrity crowd, but it’s also home to what is possibly the city’s most famous salad: a giant mound of chopped lettuce, salami, mozzarella, and garbanzo beans. If there ever was a salad that was closer to a soup, it would be this one. And despite how unpalatable that might sound, we mean it as a compliment. Also, the real trick here is to think of the salad itself as only a base for the many, many things you’ll add—pepperoncini, cucumbers, and tomatoes are a good place to start." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore, garrett snyder, nikko duren
