National Cheeseburger Day is September 18. On this day, people across the country enjoy the unofficial holiday by dining on a cheeseburger at their favorite restaurant, or by making burgers at home. While nobody is completely sure of the origins of the cheeseburger, some believe that the recipe was created in 1926. Rumor has it that a 16-year-old Lionel Sternberger was working as a fry cook at his father’s sandwich shop when we dropped a slab of American cheese on a hamburger to see what would happen. Ever since, Americans have been enjoying cheeseburgers for decades.
Wine drinkers are already fans of their favorite vintage, but others may not be as familiar with them. They can now enjoy a good red on National Red Wine Day on August 28. Even better, they can come to Ed’s Tavern in Lakewood Ranch where we serve a variety of premium reds (and whites too!)

If it’s Tuesday at Ed’s Tavern in Lakewood Ranch, then it’s Texas Hold’em night starting at 8:00 PM. Texas Hold’em is probably the most popular variety of poker played in the United States. That’s not always been the case, with other forms of poker such as stud or draw most common until Hold’em rose to popularity starting in the 1960s.
