Man v Food

Friends of mine were telling me about this show and last night I happened to catch an episode of Man v Food Nation. I thought it was a great show. Some of the food looked really tasty but the portions were extreme. There is something about American family businesses that I like, especially where good quality tasty food is concerned. Some of the oldest establishments serve up simple food that hasn't changed since the business started and I think that longevity is something to be proud of. It is a sign that the food has a constant appeal to each new generation. I was interested in a visit the presenter made to what I believe claims to be the place where hamburgers were first made: Louis's Lunch. I call it a burger on toast and funnily enough I had eaten a burget sandwich for lunch the day I watched the show. I like the old broilers, I still don't really know what a broiler is but I like the name.
All this food has inspired me to show you what I cooked for my lunch today.
I thought I would photograph the sequence for you, it was so tasty I got carried away eating it though. The pictures don't need any words. I used ketchup but a slice of tomato would have been better, we are out of tomatoes unfortunately. Louis's don't allow ketchup so my dish wouldn't get on their menu!
