Another successful Cheeseburger Week is past - Pasadena Restaurant Week arrives April 27th

Pasadena's celebration of Lionel Sternberger and his creation of the cheeseburger (or, as he called it, the Aristocratic Burger - a hamburger with cheese) at the Rite Spot in West Pasadena in 1924 was another success.

We had great coverage in local and regional newspapers. Cheeseburger Week also appeared as a featured event on the KTLA Morning News and Good Day LA. (Thank you to Dog Haus, Haven Gastropub + Brewery, New York Deli and Trattoria Neapolis for representing Pasadena's cheeseburger-loving community and culinary expertise on local television.)

Here are a few photos from the KTLA Morning News taping:
