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.
