Saltie Girl

Kathy Sidell grew up on the East Coast, where she spent time sailing with her dad. She developed an affinity for the saltiness of the sea and now owns Saltie Girl to offer the best of nature's bounty. The dishes feature the finest ingredients and burst with unbelievable flavor. Try the LA pink salad. It includes mixed radicchio, endives, fried quinoa, and more topped with walnut dressing.

Offering a casual setting, the Russell House Tavern is where strangers become friends. It serves American classics with modern interpretations, and local craft beers complement the menu. Enjoy the chopped salad. It features romaine covered with bacon, egg, bleu cheese, Harissa ranch, and other toppings. Enhance with chicken, salmon, or shrimp.

Henrietta's Table

Nestled in the heart of Harvard Square, Henrietta's Table is a farm-to-table restaurant known for its simple homemade dishes. The ingredients come from local farmers and artisans. The chefs turn them into unforgettable meals and rotate the menu daily based on availability. Sample the spinach salad. Perfect as a starter or a light meal, it's topped with strawberries, spicy pecans, Westfield Farm chevre, and maple pecan vinaigrette. On a nice day, enjoy your salad on the patio.

Before sampling a salad, shop at a local thrift store that helps make a difference in the community. You'll find clothes, furniture, and much more.
