Thanks for letting me know because I almost fainted!

ty for ur update sir 🙂

@@chuz1532 When I first saw the menu, I saw $135 for a Caesar Salad... I though what? Is there Beluga Caviar in it or something? I didn't know the restaurant was in Mexico. There is a restaurant in New York City that covers a dessert in edible gold leaf - yup, you can actually eat gold.. it passes right through you. Now that is a pricy dessert... what a waste of gold. Now I remember, its: Serendipity 3, it is called the Golden Opulance Sundae (the desert has a Wikipedia page), it now cost about US$1,000. I never had it but their "Frozen Hot Chocolate" is delicious! OMG, they now offer a US$25,000 Frozen Haute Chocolate!!!.

@@Theeightmilebend Me too, see my comment to Chuz

Thanks

now you know how to make a delicious salad!

And then to find out that it's $135.00!

@@schullieringer that would be in pesos!

Around 6.50$

This comment tho 😭

i agree that this is definitely the original and most likely the way they wish to make it but that doesnt rule out that you can still improve on it be it with ingredients or technique. So it wouldnt be wrong really but i see no reason why someone shouldnt be able to find some improvements in how they make theirs

@@HeartTheBacon improving something doesn't justify calling the original "wrong."

The place invented nothing… Like Caesars brother it only mooches off his name and his invention. Caesars daughter Rosa tells a journalist how it was originally prepared. The Caesar salad they make today was Caesars brothers recipe (Alex Cardini) known as the aviator salad. Why not just close your mouth if you have no clue what you’re talking about? That sounds fair right?

@@jayquick6520 watch out we got a tough guy here…

@@smenard1107 you were the one throwing f bombs around and pretending like you know something lol. Caesars daughter Rosa recounts the original recipe. You got put on blast and still won’t shut up 🤫

that reference.

BABATUNDE AYOOO!

@@ilikelobsters.2376 what reference

@@norpriest521 the guy who made why i season my cutting board

I have had salads prepared both ways and there is no difference. Lol. It tastes exactly the same. But no shade, you do you. Take care.

I just did the conversion, and it says that a Filet Mignon meal will run you almost $17 US; does that seem right to you? I know things are MUCH cheaper in Mexico as opposed to the United States (I've only been in Mexico once, and that was 20 years ago), but even that price seems much lower than you'd expect at a 5 star dining establishment. Is my American idea of what things are worth clouding what things could be worth if we weren't always paying such a markup?

@@Ivegotwormsinme definitely. The butcher where I live, you can buy an entire filet for around 30-40 bucks i think. A restaurant could take that same filet, cut it into 4 or 5 steaks and charge 30-40 dollars per steak and thats without sides lol. Things are so marked up here for no reason. God forbid you go somewhere in LA...then its about 80 for a filet. Its insane.

I almost had a heart attack.

OMG I THOUGHT ITS $135 in USD

oh damn thats actually a great price lol

I know! He’s out here building layers of flavor

Veteran move

i was pleased by that too

@@johnnydaytona69 😊

And kind of super bacterial too 😂

Good observation about the mechanics of making the dressing. I've heard that some restaurants reserve wooden salad bowls and tongs for making tableside Caesar salads; apparently, it's similar to "seasoning" cast iron in that the cooking surface adds to the flavour of the salad. I have a wooden spoon that has taken on the aroma of every pasta sauce I have ever made, but I'm not sure if it adds anything to any sauces I plan to make.

Or, you know, prepare the sauce ahead of time in the morning.

@@zachnies13 This is like saying you could just make bananas foster in the kitchen and bring it out to the customer. True, but completely missing the point. A dish like this (in this specific restaurant) is the table side preparation.

@@heffeff fun fact: wood cutting boards are more hygienic than plastic ones. So personally, I have no problem whatsoever eating from a wooden bowl. Heck, my family used to have some and no one got sick from them.

Sounds like a true gourmet. It's great when people put real love and effort in preparing a meal for friends, family or even strangers.

Great story

Nice!...it's a bit nostalgic for me too....my grandad used to make this for me & my brothers & sisters wen we were kids. It was nice to read ur bit of nostalgia too.

Did he charge you 200 dollars for a feed also?

Sounds like Harold treated you right…rip Harold…

So not the same exact ingredients ?

What's the difference between using lemon or lime juice? Is one more or less acidic than the other? Can you taste the difference?

Lol when I saw a $135 salad I had to check out the conversion too. In USD the prices are almost too cheap.

I know I was freaking out that it was $135 buck!

@@Morningv0dka funny enough for someone who lives in Tijuana that's kind of an expensive salad, it usually costs around $90 elsewhere, but you go there for the experience of eating it where it was created

135 pesos = 6.5 dollars

@@Morningv0dka not even 7$ on the other hand it is 5 leaves of lettus, dressing and some bread

By an Italian though so it doesn't really matter, blood is all that matters

@@Nutmegp it was made in Mexico tho An Italian living in Mexico made it most people think it was an Italian that made it in Italy It kinda does matter

@City Nat I meant it in the sense that Italians are the one who deserve the credit for the invention, not Mexicans.

@@JapaneseJim even adoptees share blood with those of the same stock as them, shared ethnicity/race isn't as important as family but it's important.

Absolutely. The anchovies and high quality parm really make it something unique. Store bought varieties and many restaurants won’t put in that effort

I would use lemon too. Thanks for that input

Hi, would the ansjovis be canned or fresh? And is it chopped? Would love to make this salad once

@@djvincon from a jar of good quality anchovies packed in oil.

I hated Caesar salad as a kid. It always smelled terrible and looked like white vomit. One day, reluctantly, I was given one at Salvatore’s Restaurant in NY and it was very good. I realized then that it wasn’t Caesar salads that I hated… it was the dressing - everybody uses bottled mayonnaise dressing with too much parmesan cheese. I learned to make it myself and now it’s the only one I’ll touch. My recipe is somewhat similar to this, but I don’t use anchovies - Worcestershire sauce is already made with anchovies - so I found it redundant.

Its also interesting watching people who don’t know what they are doing

both is good

All he did was make dressing lol. This is the equivalent of putting a little bit of dressing on your salad.

so is it interesting when I know I'm fucking up my life?

@@b.e.r.nnetwork8251 Errr... no.

It's sad that you went to a restaurant expecting to be disappointed. 😢

@Domen don’t be silly. She clearly means Julio Cesar Chavez. Probably around the time he fought that dude that wears women’s clothes

Good for u

@@khantin6526 you are salty lol

Must have been quite a while ago! Signore Cesare passed in 1956. Good thing he gave you his business card.

Cesare Cardini died in 1956, I doubt you met him. Why would you even lie about such a thing?

Price? 135 USD?

@@subho23x 135 pesos (was about 18 to 1 when this was made so a bargain at $6-7). Tijuana is not in Gavacholandia and while dollars are acceptable almost everywhere, they are not the official currency.

it's in Mexican Pesos surely, as it's in Mexico. might be wrong though, but 135 pesos is 6.77 USD

I eat at an excellent restaurant in Sta. Mon. that still makes their Caesar tableside. It’s excellent!

But Mayo is literally raw egg yolk, plua other stuff. Rather become educated that raw egg yolk is fine.

@@robertlee5456 Are you retarded? Yes, if your quality of food is trash, maybe. Japan eats a shitload of raw chicken. Noone dies.

Can also buy pasteurized eggs.

In Washington state you can no longer serve it, even coddled.

The acid from the lime would temper the yolk. It is no more dangerous then having a egg sunnyside up. First world problems.

Well the guy who made it was an Italian in Mexico

Any cook worth half their salt. Anybody can take something simple and make it look difficult. This is a demonstration of how to make a vinaigrette with a few not even unusual ingredients. With anchovy and with egg yolk. Then there are American restaurants that train children by steps and not by comprehension of what makes this cop out no-ingredient having salad so excellent. I was asked what type of dressing I would like for my Caesar. Now, that's just funny.

@@CrispinFreemont lol what are you so upset about. You can rant all you want. The fact remains their Salad is world famous. They have high class and celebs that visit. You just a hater.

The entire nation of Italy, dude.

@@CrispinFreemont Think about this dish as a product of its time. Before we were spoiled for choice with innovative new restaurants and flavours this would have been quite groundbreaking. That would certainly explain its fame and longevity.

That is a great technique. Better with Kosher salt though & very little of it because anchovies are very salty already.

That is because you don’t know where to eat. Any above the average restaurant would make you something to the original. What you are talking about is probably from some Local pizzaria owned by someone that had the capital and not the experience or the right people to build a menu.

It sounds similar to the origin story of Buffalo Wings.

@@petemichael4512 GLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORIOUS buffalo wings. one of my top 5 meals

​@@Sully365 Prior to the Buffalo Wing enterprise, chicken wings were cheap as cat food, because it was more trouble than it was worth to separate the edible part from the inedible part, which was substantial. Bartenders discovered that a drunk will do the work himself if he's hungry and doesn't want to leave his spot at the bar. That's the way that went down, with hot pepper sauce and bleu cheese dressing.

@@grayforester yep.. my grandparents had a farm and never did anything with the chicken wings... Too much trouble. Buffalo wings are still one of my top five favorite foods... I actually miss the 90s bojangles version

Its made by an Italian in Mexico with Italian flavors.

@@Timothee_Chalamet_CMBYN the ingredients and business from Mexico.

@@jumpscare_jack7412 right but that don’t mean it’s Mexican or does it? If that’s the case then why so many Chinese / Mexican style dishes crated in USA is not counted as American food. If it counts where’s it’s created then ??? Seems like ppl flip flop back and forth when it suits them.

@@jumpscare_jack7412 just like when ppl were saying that in England the national dish is chicken TIKA Misalla, the argument often is that it doesn’t matter if it’s created in England because the person is Indian and all the flavors and style of cooking is Indian, it just so happened that the Indian creator had immigrated to England and the dish was created there when by all other accounts he would’ve been in India and the dish crated in India therefor it is an Indian fish and not English.

@@Timothee_Chalamet_CMBYN well actually, it is to the culturally enlightened. one example being how burritos, hard shell (Taco Bell) tacos, and nachos are not Mexican food. same applies to orange chicken and fortune cookies, it’s not Chinese, it was made here and many people who are Chinese will tell you so as well.

Look into a beluga caviar Olivier salad you will sweat at the sight of it

I know it’s in English but I’m pretty sure the currency is not in dollars…

Nope. Mexican currency. It would be around $6.69 USD.
