I ❤️ Patty!

😋
Several culinary writers suggested that Los Angeles restauranteur Tiny Naylor may have invented the patty melt in the 1930s, 1940s, or 1950s. Even if Naylor did not invent the sandwich, it is agreed that Naylor and his family help popularize the sandwich in their respective restaurants, that included Tiny Naylor's, Du-par's, and Wolfgang Puck's Granita, over the past half century or more.

Good sandwich when made correctly. Too frequently it is overly greasy with moist bread. n/t FSogol Mar 2018 #1

Tiny Greasy spoon type restaurant

In the 90s made the BEST food ever.
Aced the patty melt.
BEST food ever.
It was perfect.
I think the husband did the cooking.
Sure miss them.
