History of Green Goddess: Actor George Arliss was appearing at that time in San Francisco in William Archer’s play called "The Green Goddess". The play had opened in New York in 1921, and was twice made into a motion picture, in 1923 and 1930 ­ all versions starring Arliss. To celebrate the play's success and honor the actor, Palace chef Philip Reomer created a special composed salad for a dinner party. The delicious salad and dressing really caught on and became an intermittent "fad" lasting for decades.
