Wanna order a damn good organic salad for lunch from a place that checks to make sure you want your dressing tossed in or on the side AND gives you advice on what wine’ll go best with your selection? Then step in to Greenleaf Gourmet Chopshop in Beverly Hills.
My friend Alison (top photo, in purple) and I stopped in last week for a late lunch. I got the Greenleaf Farm Fresh ($7.95, above), with local greens from Scarborough farms, among other fresh organic yummies.
Alison got the Antioxidant Orchard ($9.50, above), which boasted the same organic and local ideals but with a sweeter taste. Bot of us added on wild Alaskan salmon fillet for just $4 extra!
Lunch was very yummy. Picky about your salad? You can pick from a bunch of other specialty salads — or opt to build your own. Ask for wine pairing advice once you’ve got your salad picked out — and save room for dessert.
Greenleaf’s all about organic and local ingredients — and uses recycled and compostable products if you choose to get your eats to go.
Best day to try out Greenleaf’s November 3, when the restaurant’ll open for dinner for the first time. Stop by between 4 pm – 8 pm that day for a free salad!
Greenleaf Gourmet Chopshop. 9671 Wilshire Blvd. Beverly Hills. 310.246.0756. M – F, 11 am – 8 pm; Sat, 11 am – 4 pm.
Yum salmon! looks excellent.
