I used to visit this great Italian restaurant that had the most fantastic lettuce salad... It was soaked with vinegar and black olives and had large sweet slices of tomatoes.

But then it closed down.

Come to think of it, Italian food places seem to die out shortly after I visit and favor them. It’s almost like I carry a curse :(

Favourite lettuce, lamb's lettuce. Served with a little balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Lovely.

Or little gem lettuce. That's very tasty, too.

Or Chinese leaf lettuce -- either raw or very lightly stir-fried and tossed with a warm salad.

It’s a bit bitter for me but it’s not a bad option

I see it often in buffets as an option in the salads section

And unlike in the Brexit referendum, romaine is winning.

My favourites for a green salad are lamb's lettuce, watercress, rocket, and little gem lettuce. Some snipped up chives and olive oil and sherry vinegar dressing.

Oh, I forgot watercress...

That dressing sounds delicious!

Sherry vinegar is great for salad dressing.

I like olive oil and vinegar dressing

Next would be Caesar

Lately though, I’ve been trying the Japanese sweet vinegar fruit salads

I don't really eat tomatos either, except as sauce on pizza or pasta.
