No anchovies!! The original consists of romaine lettuce and croutons dressed with Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, egg, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Contrary to popular belief, the original Caesar salad recipe did not contain pieces of anchovy; the slight anchovy flavor comes from the Worcestershire sauce, which does contain anchovies. Cardini was opposed to using anchovies in his salad

Caesar salad was invented in 1924 by Caesar Cardini. Cardini was an Italian restaurateur and chef in Tijuana, Mexico. He was living in San Diego but working in Tijuana to avoid the restrictions of Prohibition. There are several stories about the specifics of the salad's creation. The most common is that it resulted from a Fourth of July rush depleting the kitchen's supplies, and Cardini made do with what he had, adding the dramatic flair of a table-side tossing. Another is that it was created for a group of Hollywood stars after a long weekend party. The Hotel Caesar in Tijuana Mexico no longer operates a restaurant, but the bar and grill adjacent to the newly renovated hotel recently resumed preparing table-side ensalada Caesar per tradition.
As an historical addendum, the salad recipe was created in "Caesar's Cafe" owned by Caesar Cardini on the ground floor of the Hotel Comercial at the corner of 2nd Street and Revolution Blvd. In 1929, Sr. Cardini moved his restaurant to the newly constructed Hotel Caesars on Revolution Blvd. near the corner of 5th St. The Hotel Comercial is long-gone, but the historic "Comercial" building still stands at the same location, and the Hotel Caesar continues to operate to this day.

Caesar's Restaurant in Tijuana, Mexico. Don't forget the anchovy paste and the raw egg-- it's not authentic caesar without them!
