From L.A. to New York and points in between, Chef Emeril Lagasse hits the road in search of America’s most iconic restaurants. Most eateries fail within a few years of opening, but a select few have outlasted wars, Prohibition, and ever-changing tastes to survive and thrive for multiple generations. Each week, Emeril explores three timeless restaurants in a different city and reveals the secrets of their success. Along the way, he uncovers the birthplace of the Boston Cream Pie and the French Dip Sandwich, drops in on Walt Disney’s and Charlie Chaplin’s preferred dining spots, and walks in the footsteps of old mobsters at former speakeasies. When you’re the first, you’re an original. And an original never goes out of style!
