My kingdom for a salad!

I haven't had a good salad since I got here. As a vegetarian, I'm finding this a bit hard.

This afternoon I went into a supposedly Italian style restaurant. There was a page on the (bilingual) menu that was titled appetizers/salads, so I was cautiously optimistic. But there weren't actually any salads listed there. I asked the waiter "Odi salad?" "Where's salad?" and he dutifully pointed to the same page. It was a bizarre moment, but even if I'd spoken Korean, it wouldn't have made a salad appear.

So, I settled for overpriced pasta, which was pretty good.
