1. Louis' Lunch, New Haven, Conn.
The Hamburger
There are vie claims for the in demand " Inventor of the Hamburger" championship , but according to Louis ' Lunch ( and the Library of Congress , for that thing ) , this small New Haven eating place take away the prize . The story go something like this : One day in 1900 , a rush man of affairs asked owner Louis Lassen for something nimble that he could run through on the run . Lassen cooked up a bitch patty , put it between some lettuce , and institutionalise the adult male on his way . Pretty modest beginnings for arguably the most pop sandwich of all - clip , huh ? If you chaffer Louis ' today , you ’ll get hold that not much has change . The Lassen class still owns and operates the restaurant , the burgers are still cooked in ancient gas kitchen stove , and , just like then , there is utterly no catsup allowed .
