Happy 100th birthday to the Caesar salad! Did you know that this iconic salad was invented one summer’s day in 1924? As the story goes, Italian chef Caesar Cardini found his Tijuana restaurant overrun with American customers on July 4, 1924. According to his daughter Rosa, “Short on ingredients in the kitchen, her father assembled what was left: lettuce stalks, olive oil, raw egg, croutons, parmesan cheese and Worcestershire sauce.

Originally intended as finger food, the original Caesar salad recipe called for whole lettuce leaves, which were to be dipped in the dressing and then eaten with the fingers.”

We serve our Caesar salad with cutlery here @ but it’s so delicious you’re welcome to eat it with your fingers too. Bon appetit! 🍽️
