Английская Википедия:Crown Burgers
Crown Burgers is a small hamburger fast food restaurant chain based in Salt Lake City, Utah started in 1978 by Nick and John Katzourakis. As of 2023, they have seven locations, all in Utah.[1]
History
The Utah chain has a history rooted in Greek immigration and a commitment to community. The Katzourakis family opened Crown Burger in 1978 after facing job loss in California. The menu reflects the diversity seen in Greek immigrant food carts, offering burgers, burritos, fish and chips, and Greek gyros. Crown Burgers also carries its own version of the regional condiment fry sauce, a combination of ketchup, mayonnaise and spices.[2]
Dean Maroudas, who now manages Crown Burger, highlights the importance of community and customer preferences. Crown Burger's success and expansion across Utah are attributed to this community-oriented approach, contrasting a global conquest mindset.[2]
Pastrami burger
The Pastrami burger, a cheeseburger which also includes hot pastrami, was first served at Minos Burgers in Anaheim, California by James Katsanevas, a relative of the Katzourakis.[1][3] Katsanevas originally learned to make pastrami burgers from a Los Angeles man of Turkish descent. When the Katzourakis opened the first Crown Burgers in Utah, they added Katsanevas's pastrami burger to the menu, and it became their signature burger, the "Crown Burger". Crown Burgers' pastrami burger has become a staple of restaurant cuisine in Salt Lake City, with a variety of local restaurants offering the sandwich, as well as the international chain Carl’s Jr.[3] The Katsanevas would later open the second Crown Burgers location in Utah.[1]
Reception
In 2010, Crown Burgers was named as serving The Official Best Burgers of Utah in 2011 in an episode of Travel Channel's Man v. Food.[4]
Crown Burgers is such a fixture in the Salt Lake Valley that in the London production of The Book of Mormon musical, the Crown Burgers logo can be seen on the backdrop for Salt Lake City stage scenes.[5]
