Waldorf Salad

A Waldorf salad is a salad consisting of apple, nuts, celery, and mayonnaise. It was first created in 1896 at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel[?] in New York by Oscar Tschirky who was the maître d'hôtel[?]. It is traditionally served on lettuce.


The Waldorf Salad is the title of a 1979 episode of Fawlty Towers which concerns a bad-tempered American guest's increasing frustration with Basil Fawlty[?]'s incompetence, symbolised by Fawlty's continuing inability to produce the salad of the title.
