New Yabut.. do they serve on those salads
(usually) &#$*^% bottled 'dressings' mostly or, is it expected to be made fresh?

Here.. the bottled stuff is so chock full' o chemicals, even a dull palate can Taste the icky shit. Y'know?

As far as when.. well lots o' folk have salad after. Lots o' Muricans rarely have one at all, except when in a restaurant - just the triple-bacon cheeseburger please. Oz folk much different in this? Are veggies a no-no for many folk there?
(I mean - ya gots lots o' space to amass huge herds of methane-producing protein sources + megatonnes of cattle shit to dispose of.. If you want.)


When Corp bizness gets through with homogenizing all food, worldwide there shall be ONLY:

Spam... Spam... Spam... Spam...
Spam... Spam... Spam... Spam...

(but the malt & hops might supply a little nutrition, I guess)

New Depends on the establishment.
At most fair-to-middling restaurant, like, anything thats not a franchise, you'll usually find in the menu a description of the dressing alongside the salad. Like, Caesar salsd with our home made dressing feature blah blah blah...

At Bistro-style places (and I just learnt [or at least, was told] the other day that bistro was derived from Russian soldiers telling food prepareres to hurry up...) the slada is more often than not undressed.

Chain-store restaurants are the most likely to serve tasty toxic manufactured dressings.

As for veggies vs salad vs chips... bistro-style you usually get to specifcy salad of chips with your meal. I think it's only Maccas, Burger King, or a roadside diner that would serve a burger on its own. In restaurants, you sometimes get the choice of veg or salad or chips. The slightly more flash restaurants will serve the hot veg in a seperate dish, the even flasher ones charge seperately for it, too.
