Owner says: "This is my favorite recipe. Feel free to make it yours by adding different herbs, more or less garlic, omitting the salt, etc. Just be sure to keep the oil-to-vinegar ratio the same. Make a double (or even triple) batch. It will keep a few weeks in the regrigerator in a covered jar.
Makes 2-½ cups.
Variation: Parmesan Vinaigrette - the most popular dressing served at the restaurant. Take 1-½ cups of the above vinaigrette and add to it ¼ cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Stir it up. Makes 1-¾ cups.
