The ever-popular Caesar salad is renown world-wide, however, it’s not common knowledge that this leafy staple was actually invented in Mexico.   Caesar Cardini, who is credited with creating the salad was Italian by birth, immigrated to San Diego but during the Prohibition Era operated restaurants in Tijuana.  According to urban legend, one very busy night the kitchen ran short, and salads were made with what was on-hand.  In order to give a bit of flair, the salads were tossed at the tables.

platillo de hoja verde fue concebido en México. César Cardini, a quien se le atribuye la creación de la ensalada, era italiano de nacimiento, emigró a San Diego y durante la época de la Ley Seca en los EUA, manejaba restaurantes en Tijuana. De acuerdo a la leyenda urbana, una noche muy ajetreada, la comida en la cocina se agotó y las ensaladas se prepararon con lo que había a la mano. Con el objeto de darle algo de estilo, las ensaladas fueron preparadas en las mesas.
