In light of finding out one of my favorite dishes, Tikki Masala, isn't from India, but from immigrants concocting it while in Britain's South Asian restaurants, I am going to point out my San Francisco's culinary contributions, an example of why immigrants are vital to culture: The Italian-American fish stew Cioppino is from SF! So is Chicken Tetrazzini, invented by the @PalaceHotelSF's chef in 1909, Ernest Arbogast. Crab Louie, the "King of Salads" has been served in SF since 1914 at Solari's, but likely from 1910 recipe from a @WestinStFr hotel chef! ImageImageImage
