Discover the Birthplace of the Caesar Salad in Tijuana, Mexico! 🇲🇽 While many mistakenly believe the Caesar Salad was created by Julius Caesar, it was actually invented by Italian chef Caesar Cardini. He owned a restaurant in Tijuana, a popular destination for American tourists escaping Prohibition in the U.S. on July 4, 1924, during a busy holiday weekend, the legend of the Caesar Salad was born. 🎇 According to Cardini's daughter, Rose, the restaurant had run low on ingredients due to the large crowd. With only a few items left in the kitchen, Caesar Cardini improvised, combining romaine lettuce, olive oil, raw egg, croutons, Parmesan cheese, and Worcestershire sauce. The salad was served with whole lettuce leaves, which diners dipped into the dressing with their fingers. 😮 The salad was an instant success, spreading quickly to restaurants around the world and eventually becoming one of America's most beloved dishes. I can honestly say it’s the best Caesar Salad I’ve ever eaten! 🤤 Have you tried the original Caesar Salad yet? If not, save this reel for your next food adventure! 🙌🏼
