>Inside Louis' Lunch, the 120-Year-Old Birthplace of the Hamburger
> As legend has it, Louis' Lunch served its first hamburger in the year 1900, when the spot was still a lunch wagon. After a diner specifically requested something to-go, owner Louis Lassen — whose portrait still hangs in the cozy space — responded by offering a sandwich featuring "ground steak trimmings" in between two slices of toast. The unconventional hamburger "bun" still reigns at Louis Lunch, and according to Kerry Lassen, whose husband Jeff is Louis's great-grandson, "most people, after having it on toast, enjoy the toast more," she says. "It makes the taste of the burger come out versus the bun."
