10 restaurants to celebrate National Caesar Salad Day

Thursday , July 2nd , 2015

The food holiday celebrates the day in 1924 when Italian immigrant Caesar Cardini originated the salad that combines crispy romaine lettuce with croutons, Parmesan cheese, lemon, lardoons and a creamy dressing.

As the story goes, Cardini — a restaurateur — ran out of regular salad to feed his guests. To make his customers happy, he threw together some random ingredients and prepared the salad tableside to the acclamation of his patrons.
