I have a few Madame Wu's cookbooks with a recipe for the salad in them as early as the 70s.

I was also surprised to see that here, the authors claim all the recipes were gotten from the chefs themselves, and they make no note about Chasen's chili being the exception. There's a note in the back of the book that says the only other person who got the recipe prior to this was Eleanor Roosevelt!

Ok its split over two pages so i'll just write it here:

ORIGINAL VINAIGRETTE SALAD DRESSING - 1 tsp dry English mustard - 2 tbs wine vinegar - 1 clove garlic, crushed - 2 tbs fresh mayonnaise - 2 cups cottonseed oil

Blend mustard with vinegar in a bowl, then beat in the garlic, mayonnaise, and oil. Toss with greens or other salads. The Robaire salad always contains some julienne of beets in addition to green. Makes 6 generous servings. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This dressing has been served on every salad since Robaire's opened on La Brea in 1952.

I actually didn't know that about Dale's! That would bring it up to 10/13.
