I remember when this place opened...good times. It was a nice addition to the Fairlawn area so many years ago! My dad and I would stop in and get salads to go...one in particular has been on the menu since day one, it's a real "healthy Ohio treat"....drum role please....
THE BUFFALO CHICKEN SALAD (also known as the Firestone salad)!
Now, by "healthy" I mean TOTALLY NOT GOOD FOR YOU SUKA! I bet this salad has more calories than 5 Swensons galley boys but who cares it's totally freaking tasty.
This salad consists of:
A bed of warm pita bread.
A mound of iceberg lettuce.
Maybe some tomatoes...
Cheddar jack cheese.
Loads of charbroiled chicken drenched in buffalo chicken hot sauce.
Finely chopped celery topped with ranch dressing.
The trick, order extra buffalo sauce to take this salad over the top! Well, anyway I was in town for a quick visit and made sure to stop in to get my fix...damn that was tasty.
It's buffalo wings for classy folk or if you're living in denial and believe all salads are healthy. When you get board with the fork you can make mini pita buffalo chicken gyros that kick culinary ass!!
I give this calorie bomb of a salad 9 "you know a salad is bad for you when it starts with a foundation of pita bread" out of 10.
