I'd love if we went to menus like this everywhere. The food everywhere would be great.

These two pictures show how wildly inconsistent they are at cooking the burger. I've see enough documentaries on this place that you'll either get your burger medium or blue rare.
>>
>>21900971
This one of those snobby "no we will not provide condiments how dare you sully our perfect food with, ugh, ketchup" places?
>>
>>21901063
Yes.
>>
>>21901063
Yes, they'll kick you out if you try to sneak ketchup in, which is ironic considering they put fucking cheez whiz on the burgers. You shouldn't take anything they say seriously

Pass.

I lived two blocks from this place for a few years and, after trying it once, never went back ever again. It sucks.

Looks amazing. We need to start walking the old paths again.

Looking at the photos from Google Maps.
Most of these burgers look way under done.
Dangerous to eat beef like this

what bread do they use

is it pronounced Lewis Lunch or Louie's Lunch, or Lewis's Lunch?
>>
>>21901191
You tell me, king of boomers.
>>
>>21900982
They can keep the original ‘Louis’ on the menu, but they really should have a more modern burger (‘LL Hot Beef’) and a made to order potato side
>>
>>21900975
is it true there's a place nearby that makes their burgers exactly the same but offers ketchup and other condiments?
>>
they're not even the original. their claim has been deboonked for a long while
>>
>>21901447
I think they earned the right to the claim by surviving

>>21901475
That's not how that works.
>>
>>21901476
It is if there's no one around to dispute them except an autistic man on the Internet
>>
>>21901332
it's just louis lunch depending on the pronunciation (loo-ee or loo-is)
>>
>>21902134
This didn't answer the question at all, but thanks for trying with what limited understanding the Lord provided you

you thought "lewis's lunch" was a possible pronunciation lmao so don't get cheeky, cunt

I went there a number of times when I lived in CT. The meat is genuinely good, it's supposed to be a blend of five different cuts of beef. They cook it in those weird old vertical broilers.

I'd say the meat is good enough that you really don't need many enhancements, like you would with a shitty fast food burger. I usually just get tomato and onion. They used to be cash-only but started taking cards during the pandemic.

Anyway yeah they're good. Ignore the tourist hype and just eat a good burger.

Whatever you want to call it. I don't obsess over labels.

first off, you don't eat undercooked ground meat
that shit is wildly inconsistent
bread is just soggy, greasy slop

>the home of the original hamburger
Why do Americans do this?
>>
The one time I took my family to eat there it took almost an hour for everything to be cooked and the burgers were underwhelming. Also the place is pricey for what you get. Try it once to say you've had it, then get New Haven style pizza which is really quite good.
>>
Not sure why you would go to this shit over pizza if you were in New Haven.

If you live near New Haven, you can go there multiple times for different things. Novel concept, huh?

looks okay but I prefer buns to toast. and more veggies on it.

Why do Germoids do this?

Not even in the top 5 best restaurants in New Haven. Maybe not even top 10. Do yourself a favor and go across the street to Bar and get their mashed potato pizza.
>>
>>21902753
This is how pizza sausage should be done. They should probably even sear that shit in a pan so it's precooked before it hits the pie and gets all crispy and flavorful. I hate big ass chunks of grey sausage crumbles motherfuckers try you.with
>>
>>21902941
It's not sausage, it's bacon. I can see why you'd think that though

It's a good point I remember Gordon Ramsey making a lot in Kitchen Nightmares. Small menu. So then you can focus on making those select few items well. And with fresh ingredients. Because if you have a long menu, you're just going to have a big freezer full of things that rarely get ordered. You want a little list of good food, not a long list of mediocre food. And personally. I just like it like that too. I like the simplicity.

>>21903286
It's why I don't trust places like Cheesecake Factory that have entire novels as menus. If you have that many menu items, then stuff is likely going to be sitting around for a while in the freezer. And unless you've vacuum sealed everything, it's going to taste bland and uninspiring after several weeks in the freezer.
Smaller menus in my experience usually means better quality food

They can't even manage to cut their tomato slices evenly.
This place would've gone out of business a century ago if not for the prestige of being the ""first"" (despite the fact that the hamburger steak itself was invented in europe, they just put it in a shitty sandwich).

What the fuck is wrong with this place? This looks just downright bad. Who is going here enough to support a business? Its not even cooked all the way, sounds like management has a hostile attitude from the signage, who is willingly buying these? It seriously looks like the kind of burger Id make if I was dead broke and hungover. Vomit tier.

Reluctance to change. It's got a claim to the original burger, but in that way it's like a Subsaharan African tribe or Brazilian Native tribe with minimal contact with the outside world.
A bunch of topless women with possibly a hide skirt and men with at most leather cocksleeves in body paint throwing spears and living on their hunts.
Meanwhile we live in a world where burgers have subtly evolved more and more. Sure those Uncontacted Africans and Sudacas could in theory be put into some modern clothes, dropped into a large city and could potentially blend in with social training and learning the language of the city, you could have sex with them and produce a child.
But original man, like original burger just looks, ugly simple and primitive to us, even dirty and self-destructive.
It's close enough to Yale that it's always gonna have a rotating clientele of tourists and smart enough to respect history college kids, it has good marketing. But yeah, compared to a bacon cheddar burger or a double smashburger with caramelized onions it's not exactly got an appetizing look to it. Just like a tribe of technically fit people with their dicks and tits hanging out don't have the same sexual connotations as a nude beach on the coast of France or some skinny dipping college kids in America.

being too based for this earth. i respect them for standing their ground and sticking with tradition. too many companies nowadays kowtow any time some nobody faggot on twitter says their product is bad. more companies need to tell customers to fuck off. they don't have to cater to absolutely everyone.

the lunch deli i worked at in HS had this on the wall. based. no mayo on an italian.

Autists and Aspies used to just be peculiar.
So a lot of people who invented a signature sandwich or had a quick lunch counter probably had the very autistic belief that the thing they like is perfect and nobody should like it any other way. Imagine if an autist had to feed themselves in a pre-dino nuggie era.
>>
>>21903545
You can ask for your burger well done. I bet these people out of spite dry that shit out.
>>
>>21903855
Mayo on Italian subs, much like pepperoni on pizza, is just another example of Americans improving mediocre ethnic foods into culinary classics

mmm sloppy
