NEW YORK -- A New York woman reportedly has filed a $3 million lawsuit against a midtown Manhattan restaurant after she found a finger tip and nail in her salad.

The New York Post reported that the lawsuit filed in Manhattan State Supreme Court said the incident happened Aug. 19, when the woman was eating a beet salad that had been taken out of Rue 57 Braserie.

The newspaper said the restaurant did not return a call for comment.

The lawsuit said Marina Andriynannikova was eating the salad in her apartment when she bit down on something hard. Andriynannikova said the manager of the restaurant went to the apartment.

Her court papers said the restaurant learned later that a kitchen worker had cut his finger.

1. Obviously she should have ordered the finger sandwiches instead

2. Ok that's gross but why does she get $3 million? If I were on that

jury I would give her $1 + the cost of the salad.
