It's getting cold, but we're still having salad

Leafy salad with herbed Feta, avocado and oranges

The following salad is absolute my favourite, for many years already. The idea or let's better say the original, as I'm making it exactly as I ate it for the first time, came from a restaurant in Berlin, Steglitz. The salad was named after the restaurant itself and is until today their biggest seller. 
As I made it a few days ago, after a really long time, I had the feeling, I forgot something. When I looked up, if the restaurant still exists, it hit me right away: I forgot the potato croutons. So even if they are not on the picture, the recipe is not complete without the potato croutons.
The salad is for me of course connected to a lot of memories, but even so  the combination of the flavours and textures is amazing. What I like most, to my surprise, is the combination of cucumber, orange and avocado. I'm always placing these ingredients together on the plate, so they are enjoyed together.
The only thing I'm missing, is the fantastic herbed feta they used, it was very soft and not as salty in taste as the one I'm getting here. Still, the salad is in my opinion one of the best.
So, there is not much to say, just try it out and I hope you'll love that salad as much as I do.
