The Chopped Salad has been a house favorite at the Solaris Grille for years. Awarded the coveted “Best of Philly” Award for salads in 2000, the salad is a typical any-time-of-day healthy favorite. It has become popular lunchtime fare. However, in the evening, it’s a great starter before any of the Soalris Grille’s delicious grilled dishes. John Anderson’s well-conceived Chopped Salad balances the crunch of asparagus, cucumber, and snap peas with the unctuous taste of avocado and kitchen-roasted red pepper. Chopped bacon and crumbled bleu cheese add lusty undertones to a dish that finds a winsome pairing with your favorite Shiraz.
