Houstons Restaurant Salad Recipes

HOUSTON'S-STYLE KALE SALAD

Houston's-Style Kale Salad image

This 41-year-old restaurant chain added its Asian kale salad to the menu about five years ago-just as kale started taking over the country-and now the dish is a cult favorite. The restaurant goes by 15 different names in 12 states (you may know it as Hillstone or Bandera) and not every location sells the salad, but diners who taste it tend to become obsessed.
