The New Yorker's A to Z of NY Food: H is for Hamburger

Morning! This is @Jamespomerantz back with Day Three of my A to Z of New York Food. Today we start with H IS FOR HAMBURGER! One version of hamburger history involves marauding Mongols introducing ground horse meat to Muscovites. From there, ground meat recipes spread by ship to Hamburg where there was a large Russian population. Later on, emigrants traveling from Hamburg to New York brought their culinary traditions with them. Thanks to New York and her open arms, the hamburger was born somewhere in the US with multiple parties laying claim to its invention. A simplified and possibly extremely flawed history but I’m sticking with it because I love hamburgers and my only other H photo is of me hungover (on view at @jamespomerantz). Everybody has their favorite burger, mine is this bacon cheese beauty from @littleowlnyc. It's delicious, works wonders on a hangover and is well worth fudging history for. What’s your H food photo? Tag it with #TNYeats so everyone can see. #hamburger #food #Newyork.
