🍔 Louis' Lunch (g.page/LouisLunchCT?share)
NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT - Welcome to New Haven, one of the pizza capitals of the United States, Yale University, and there happens to be an original restaurant called Louis' Lunch where the modern hamburger was invented. The restaurant is still family run since 1895!
First of all you have to appreciate the amazing original building of Louis' Lunch, it’s totally frozen in time, literally unchanged, just aged to perfection. It’s like a cottage from the outside, and when you step inside you can feel the original charm - there are wooden pulpit like booths, personal seating with burger tables, and then you see the original vertical burger chargrills at the front of the restaurant, and you know you’re about to eat the original hamburger!
For a little of the history, in Germany they had been eating a Hamburg steak, served like a hamburger steak, yet it hadn’t been put into bread to make it a handheld sandwich. As the story goes, the ground beef was brought to New Haven by sailors from Hamburg, Germany. Louis Lassen started serving hamburger steak, and one day when some customers were in a rush, he stuck the hamburger steak between two slices of bread and gave it to them. The sailors loved it, and they actually named it the hamburger.
Now, the complete history of the hamburger is not fully known and some argue that it was consecutively invented at the same time across a number of places, but the hamburger story of Louis' Lunch is without a doubt real, and they are surely the ones who made the hamburger popular. If you think about it, this is ground zero - this is where all other burgers originate! Whether you’re eating at McDonald's or a gourmet artisanal burger, they all have origins and have been influenced by the original hamburger right here in New Haven!
The hamburger by the way is amazing, nothing more and nothing less than you would want. And it’s an ultimate food history experience.

God bless you for bringing smiles and joy to alot of us who would love to travel and try all of these wonderful foods!
i know i am in a similar situation, the light of my life has breastcancer. stay positive no matter how long it rains, sunshine will push thru.
@@cheftje3339 Blessings to your darling. Its a challenging time for us all. Love and light to you both 💛 keep positive, happy and grateful x
Wishing the best for you and your husband
All the best!
@@FirstLast-qf7oe blessings to you. Appreciate your message 🧡
Mark's energy and love of eating makes his videos so addictive. Never stop Mark.
Would u watch me eat if I uploaded videos?
@@johnnyblaze1098 Lmao 🤣 people are weird af they literally sit in front of a screen to hear strangers chew
So true he be like the most exciting cutest kid ever 😉😂
@@johnnyblaze1098 Depends what's your mackin' on bro.
If everything is exciting. Nothing is exciting
your vibe and excitement for this made me enjoy it soooo much more! its easily an rusted old machine thats not as efficent as todays invention, but when you dive into the history and origin story of this place, its truly humbling to witness a machine built with such perfection
Mark when you squeezed that burger 🍔 my mouth watered instantly lol You inspire me. I am so much more open to trying new foods. I also learn so much about different cultures from you. I hope that one day I can inspire the world and be apart of different cultures just like you!
Mark just being so friendly with people he’s never met before. Truly amazing man
Of course, he's being serve for food for free. Wat do u expect?
@@DavidDavid-yz2sh He doesn't get everything for free. No way they served free burgers to half a dozen people.
@@DavidDavid-yz2sh it's called he's being himself. You don't think primadonna/irritating foodbloggers exist?
So I am, why wouldnt you?
Shit..I hate people but for the money I would pretend to like everyone around me.
That looks like a burger that I make at home when I run out of Hamburg rolls.........
Same LOL
It's really nothing special, that's why. You can make a better burger at home easily
Right! I made a even better looking one with texas toast, and a seasoned handmade burger patty. Making these at home would cost only a few dollars compared to the restaurants $7 price
@@moebahri2873 czcams.com/video/-u5Ac8w0JeY/video.html 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.....
@@WolfgangSeiya Louis' Lunch largely regards itself as the inventor but it is a disputed matter, especially since George Motz has evidence of its existence in the 1840's in Texas under the name "Hamburger Steak Sandwich".
I really like how they kept the vibe from the 1800s, also Mark’s excitement not only to try the hamburger but just admiring the restaurant and the vertical grills, everything felt so homemade and I think we should support more that kind of restaurants rather than the huge industries.
quickest and safest way for transfer of wealth from the top to the bottom.
Yea 7$ in 1800 that was the price
They just scammers
This a raw sad looking burger
🇩🇰Louis Lassen began his career as a blacksmith in Denmark, emigrating to New Haven in 1886. He went into business for himself as a food peddler, and in 1895 he began selling lunch from his food cart - Louis’ Lunch. The history of the hamburger started a day of summer in 1900 when a local businessman dashed into the small lunch wagon, and asked for a quick lunch to go. According to the Lassen family, the customer exclaimed “Louie! I’m in a rush, slap meatpuck between two planks and step on it!”. Louis, who is described as “a waste-not, want-not kind of guy”, ground up the leftover steak scraps of his own blend of ground steak trimmings, slapped them between two pieces of white bread, gave it to his customer - and voilà - the hamburger was born!🇩🇰
🤔
Wrong!!
How can you make eating a burger interesting for almost 20 minutes? You have talent my friend, such a likeable personality too. Great work!
Huge thank you for your incredible support!
It’s really an iconic place to visit. They kept almost everything same and simple.
But beef 🤢🤮🤮
Its not that good food, but its always funny to ask for Ketchup. They love it.
@@48pluto Yeah, it looks like a burger that anyone can easily make. Eating one of those at home would cost like $1
The whole world eats beef
@@chrisleearies484 but remember, 100 years ago, everyone couldn't. It's amazing the things we now take for granted was a luxury at one point in our past.
Glad I found this channel again. Really enjoy the energy. Also, can’t help but feel the way burgers are occasionally flipped and the vertical nature of the grill, allows the juices to run down keeping everything just right.
Theres nothing special about a verticle cooking a burger. George Forman fooled alot of people with that gimmick.
Never a dull moment with Mark I appreciate your show’s especially as a chef, you keep me with creative recipes from all over the country to try and recreate at home.🤜🏼
burger in it's simplest form. i'm actually drooling right now.
IKR? I sometimes have to pause Mark's vid's to make something to eat! lol!

Mark can you do more of this historical place and food.... really enjoyed it.
...it only does this burger though
Thank you Benjamin!
Welcome to Connecticut Mark
@@GabGotti3 that guy he's always with looks like a real creep tho .... Mark is overly polite and Goofy no big deal.....but that other dude is off...
They do have one of the very best hamburgers! Simple and delicious. And, the service is always great! Thank you for viewing this location...one of the best!

@@monicahaymes4361 mark is one of my top favorites for sure he is an amazing person with so much positive energy it's wonderful ❤
Mark is the ultra dream dinner guest. I'm sure once in a while he probably encounters something that is maybe not the best he's ever had but he is so gracious and well-mannered. I love to eat just about anything and food is always an adventure. I put a lot of care into my cooking and my friends enjoy my cooking but once in a while I encounter people who are limited, extremely ignorant and rude who appear to think cooking for them merits a personal critique. Those individuals are never invited back and avoided in public. I have little patience for full fledged adults who are picky eaters.
Thank you for your amazing support!
Mark is such a light. Truly an awesome dude just radiating with happiness and love for that life.
Your videos always make me so happy. I can see light shining through you and can definitely guess where that comes from. Keep it up Mark!

I've never seen this kinda grill in my life, loving the America Food Series.!
Check out George Motz of First We Feast, who just had a replica of this grill fabricated/welded! Amazing.
I have, but only when louis Lunch was on some show on the Travel Channel. My mom would make hamburgers and put them on bread,sometimes toasted, sometimes not. I still do that once in a while.
Yes very good. You should see the Greek series. It has 1 guy saying yeah yeah yeah during the whole video.
My first time to see it too for burgers, so cool!
I'm from New haven that is 100% basic as it looked. this is literally what you you would get a cookout. the quality of the meat is good tho 👍🏼
"...smell that aroma"
I love it everytime! Keep on being you bro. Much 💙
Mark is the epitome of happiness. He radiates a joy of life and really loves what he's doing. 100% genuine all the way.
Yes you would know because you live with him ? Or been his friend for years ? . Lol you only see him on camera .
Of course he needs to look vibrant and happy ON CAMERA. Lol.
Genuine? Even if he doesn't like the taste of the food, he still says it's delicious. How is that genuine?
@@Kingkidama How do you know he doesn't like what he eats? I guess you think you're some sort of psychic. He's a lot more genuine than most of the so-called CZcamsrs who are just going through the motions.
@@pz2736 bullsh*t he like anything he eats, that what makes his channel. even give him a cup of dirty water from the toilet and he's like "OOOOHH WOOOOOW" with goggle eyes, you are a rtard if you don't realize this gimmick
That first burger looks like something a college dorm student would cook up
its like saying beef and bread was discovered in 1898
@@danielsakizzie7273 it's just alot of hype for nothing. Thanks that other use lettuce burger buns and real cheese. This here is a meat sandwich and nothing else.
Salute from you biggest Scottish fan mark 👊🏴💯
Recently found this guy. What a pleasure to find such an upbeat, non cynical, genuine person. So enthusiastic, and no idea how he stays so slim!
Where you abducted by aliens ?

I love seeing antique equipment in action like this!
Burger King👑 can thank Louis Lunch for the flame 🔥 Grill idea👈
2:01 this guy had one job!! :(
I would love to know, how often that equipment has needed repairs. I'm willing to bet not many, things were really made to get longevity out of back then. Today's stuff, seems to have a timer on them, to keep spending money.
@𝘿!𝙘𝙠 Riding ǤƗяℓ Camila I felt that!! lol
The first Hamburger is from the City of Hamburg. Hamburger means "from Hamburg" like Wiener "from Wien" Frankfurter "from Frankfurt" Kasseler "from Kassel" etc.
Mark and his wife do a very professional job and his excitement is contagious. I enjoy that he explains the history and all of the culinary experience of an item he is demonstrating. You are the greatest food vlogger for sure! Thank you for your work. You make us foodies excited.🥳🤩
Huge thank you Annemarie, appreciate your incredible support!

I agree with your opinion, I also like how he tells the history of the restaurant, of the food and some fun facts
Oh my goodness, I worked in a couple restaurants 20 plus years ago with same machinery, how awesome they still work and make quality burgers
My man Mark, always can tell you LOVE the food, keep up the awesome work!
it makes me a little proud that Louis Lassen was Danish - and his restaurant is still standing🙌❤🙌
An American reading this while I’m in Denmark lol
ta' dig sammen min ven, there are many worthy things and higher achievements to be proud of being a Dane than this case of stolen cultural heritage... You Danes do not need such a thing, you already have incredibly rich cultural heritage, and in the end - it does not lie in your mentality!... just let the Americans and others do it...
@@verbal_DK Sikken en gang mundlort.
So..all those years we though we were eating "struggle burgers" we were actually recreating the original burger?!
The broke burger is actually the original lol
@@nathanmerritt1581 looool
lobster was fed to prison inmates in the past...perception is everything
@@andrefecteau Yeah but back then lobster was considered the struggle food some 250 - 300 years ago
@@bluemeanie9554 that's my point...it was considered "garbage", like ribs, crawfish, seersucker suits...amazing huh?
Your excitement made me want to go there right now! And not to mention how delicious the burgers looked. Thank you for such a great video. Maybe some day....
Thank you! Been looking for this kind of video for a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time. I was so sad until know. It has been a rough year but today is now a good day. You are a true saint!
9:50 the moment u get ignored hard lol
Is it just me, or did anyone else think “damn, that’s a lot of mustard” at first? Lol
Yes!!!
Lol
I thought - now that is a nice amount of mustard!!
Yup, and Yuk to mustard on hamburg!

I bet it’s good cheese sauce though!!
Absolutely Amazing & Delicious. Thank You So Much for This Hamburger History Mark & Jeffrey ✅😇 Cheers from Los Angeles
Thanks for the content. Your enthusiasm is appropriate and your excitement is worthy.
I grew up in New Haven, I miss going there after school. I used to save up allowance for the week. I always order at least 2 burgers because 1 is never enough. Great video Mark!
So cool seeing these burgers cooked in those old vertical grilling machines. They come out so juicy! Love how the place kept its charm. Interesting and delicious video as always Mark!
this is how I eat at home, no buns, just bread, pepper, lots of onions. No ketchups or sauces. Love the pure taste.
Very interesting place, thank you for always keeping us entertained mark!
Mark I love your positive attitude and your respect for other cultures. Keep on sending the great content, Mark!
One thing I really love mark wiens , he never left anything on plate, keep on filming Mark, 😊😊😊
Thank you for being our companion throughout this pandemic, 💚
He sure does eat a lot for a skinny dude.
And... His HUGE MONSTER bites of everything!!! I love that!!
Love this guy! I love the way he eats, and loves food. I don't think I've ever seen him turn down any meal! Or say a meal wasn't the best!
😃 😆🤣😂 💘 🍔🍔🍔 🍴🍽
You have a really fantastic channel I am entertained by all of your episodes. I actually find your channel educational informative and entertaining. Great Job!
So amazing to see 6:10 a toaster from 1929 and the grills all the while a cell phone is charging right next to them. I love imagining those people from that time era being able to see what’s become of the world.
Thank you mark helping me smile through this difficult time in my life.blessings to all

Love the happy and positive energy man doing a lot for this platform 👏👏
The reason WHY I SUBSCRIBED and WATCH Mark Wiens ALL THE TIME is because of that SMILE & FACIAL EXPRESSIONS he makes once he gets that 1st bite in. BEST FOOD REVIEWER EVER🖤
Mark, your gratitude for and appreciation of all the food (and the wonderful hands making it) is as great as the food itself!!! So awesome. Keep up the great work brother!!! 😁 👌 👏 👍🤙
I grew up in CT and have been to Louis' many times. Great review!!!
My grandmother use to make burgers similar to this in the late ‘60s here in California, when I was a little kid, but she used her big iron skillet for the hamburger patties and she used white bread, too. With mayonnaise and mustard. She didn’t toast the bread but I remember it was so juicy and good. The only thing is when my brother and I had a burger with the white bread, the bread would stick to the roof of our mouth! Lol, My grandparents owned a local neighborhood market and there was a small deli section. My brother and I ate a lot of bologna too! Those burgers look delicious, thank you for sharing! 😁
Wow, the bread sticking to the roof of your mouth, untoasted, and soggy. Sounds like a time, lmfao.
His mind blowing sense of telling a brief history from culture,people,food and places he visits was always superb!kudos Mark!👏🏻
Would love to see more of your son and wife having a good time as well and enjoying the food you're eating.

Dude your videos are awesome! You're constantly smiling ear to ear. Though I do worry about the striations on your neck from doing so! 😂 I'm kidding. Thank you for bringing us along to these amazing places!
Wonderful video and love all the history added in!! Thank you Mark!!!
Wow. That is so awesome Mark! Thank you for sharing with us all!
It’s amazing how this place has never changed. The burgers are really as good as claimed and no ketchup is allowed even though there’s no shortage of Yale students trying to sneak some in, quickly refused
I've read reviews that this isn't a good place. You can easily find reviews when searching this. After all that hype I really can't trust Mark that much anymore. He would never say these burgers are bad (as the reviews say) after all this hype.
@@MultiJejje my issue was that the cook never seemed to change his one glove even though he's touching everything with it
Yeah, it really shows dedication to tradition how all their cooking equipment appears as though it hasn't been cleaned in 25 years. Yum yum yum. And how all the etchings of people's initials have turned black from all the skin oils from hands.
@@MultiJejje Cut it out. No matter how great a place is, someone will find something wrong. On Yelp they have 3 1/2 stars
@@vannhollandiii3711 it's true this place sucks.. Yes historically it's cool but it's not good. If your using your hard work money at this establishment then yes you can have an opinion
One of the best episodes; those vertical flame broilers are a piece of lost Americana. Nicely done!
Mark's got personality for days, and a genuine happiness when it comes to food and people. Mark is "THE FOODIE" for the people
Appreciate your kind words and amazing support Daniel!

For the longest time I couldn't decide if I liked watching Mark, then one day I realized that I keep watching all his vids without fail.
Yes, I would! I love this video! Those burger broilers are works of art!!! Thank you for your videos!
I drove there from Florida just for a burger one time. Worth every mile.
That grill is so unique. Never seen anything like that before!
Then you’ve never been to Connecticut
yeees, never though of a vertical grill, somehow I find it more practical than the modern way to cook beef for hamburgers, not only it is more interesting but it may also be faster, but keeping all that aside, the most amazing thing here is how they still work, those thing are over a hundred years
Woah Congrats on 8 million Mark! Road to 9M, here we go!!
Been there and love the history as well. Went to university of New Haven class of 13 and the place looks the same! Everything looked great and you have a great time.👍👍

Never thought in my life that there's still an original burger too old like that one..AMAZING!!!!
I remember when I was a kid in the eighties and my mom would make burgers like this when we didn't have buns lol. I love my burgers like that on occasion. Simple and true flavor 👌.

The guy is making the burger with raw meat on his gloves. Mark is amazing and happy as always
This is a burger for Men not pussy's, Mark survived and he didn't got sick that night.
