**The Story of César's Restaurant**
History says that this gabacho from the city of Tijuana has a fascinating story to tell. It starts with Liv Santini, an Italian who came to the city of Tijuana. His mother made his salad in Italy, where they were cheese and bread and olive oil and egg. Mad had toolive oil and egg, which he uploaded it to the top of the restaurant. Well, that's how César Cardini, the original owner of the restaurant, started making it on the table.
He put Caesar salad because the restaurant was called César and well that's the story more or less no uh let's do the classic here about cers that are marrows because right now everyone the breed is already very poor so a little fat is not going to be bad for them it is roasted And then the steam is heated we put it there. How should you eat a top of the whole chear the ritual the ritual the ritual.
