What is Cobb dressing?

[FunFamily]

Hi Friends:

Can anyone report what is "Cobb dressing" on the Cobb Salad at The Brown Derby?

Thanks,

It's hard to describe, but I'll give it a shot.

If I'm remembering right, it's pink and creamy, sweet, a little bit like Thousand Island, but not exactly.

I seem to recall it's a "classic french"--not the orange looking dressing you find in the bottle..

Yes, this is how it's always been when I have it. Not pink, creamy, and sweet at all - it's a vinaigrette-type.

It's fairly light in flavor compared to the toppings on the salad, so if you're looking for the flavor of it, you probably won't notice it.

I adore real Cobb salads and this is my favorite.

Ok, so I must have been on crack when I was pulling from my memory banks. Just kidding, no crack involved, but I am remembering some sweet creamy pink dressing from somewhere, this obviously just isn't it.

Uncleromulous and Forever42, I'm glad you guys were there to set this straight
