When I had lunch with him in his New York apartment, he served this colorful and crunchy salad featuring endive, purple onion and lots of crumbled bacon. From the food and travel website www.robinbenzle...

Thanks so much. It was such an amazing and unforgettable experience. Everyone thought I was crazy for trying for the interview - and I'll never forget the day The Call came...

I agree. (The Caesar dressing is great).

That olive oil and vinegar dressing is really, really good. I just started buying it and found out how good it is. Simple, but extremely tasty. I think it must be the one with which he started the business. The salad ingredients look good too.

I believe that's his original - and I've always liked it, too.

Brava! I've interviewed some biggies over the years and people would say to me, "How did you get an interview with him?" I said I asked. Sometimes they say yes, sometimes no, but you have nothing to lose by asking. Newman was a difficult person, so the fact that you got an interview with him AND he made you lunch AND you go to so to his apartment is a big deal. His original oil & vinegar dressing is my favorite of the store brands. I will resist asking where Joanne was or if you were dessert! Nice job!

Thanks! It certainly was a special day for me. And I think he went out of his way because I 'wasn't Barbara Walters'.

This looks really good. My favorite Paul Newman movie has got to be Cool Hand Luke. Thanks for sharing your Paul Newman story that was great!

We just watched 'The Hustler'! Thanks for your kind words - we picked up several Polish pieces in Poland - nothing really matches - yet it all looks nice together. Love that stuff!

Oh my god, that looks so good! My guy loves Paul Newman so I'm sure he'll appreciate it if I make this salad for him. Thanks for sharing.

Looks delicious but I think I would add mushrooms. What a good and generous man.

Newman said his idea of ecstasy was a bowl of popcorn and two beers, and of course, Newman's Own Popcorn.
@RobinBenzle5 жыл бұрын
That sounds like him! He also talked about sneaking a greasy brown paper bag of popcorn into theaters.

Thank you for sharing your memories. Paul Newman will always be a favorite actor because he is so talented and so down to Earth, and I am also very familiar with Cleveland Ohio. The comment about Barbara Walters made me laugh.

Love Paul Newman favorite films are 'The Hustler' & 'Hud'. Great salad however I have never purchased his products. I noticed your beautiful Polish ceramic deep bowl! There must be a story about that piece. I have a few pieces & I love them! I love eating my hearty soups in the soup bowls. My son has his favorite place setting plate. I have a mix & match setting for 4. Also have a Polish ceramic baker that I love next to my Le Creuset braiser. Thanks for an interesting video. Lovely home!
