    5. Comments: It"s unclear just who the Louis of Crab Louis salad fame was; perhaps he was affiliated with the Olympic Club in Seattle, where opera star Enrico Caruso, who visited there in 1904, is said to have fallen in love with the crab salad. San Francisco also claims the dish, that reached its zenith there in the teens, as a specialty at Solari"s restaurant and at the St. Francis Hotel.
