New McDonald's to pay tribute to Big Mac creator
Tuesday, May 15, 2007

A new McDonald's will pay tribute to the Pittsburgh native who made food history 40 years ago when he brought the world the Big Mac.

Jim Delligatti invented the fast food store's signature burger and also brought the city its first McDonald's in 1957.

The tribute McDonald's, going up in place of a recently demolished restaurant, will be in Irwin.

The location is a "gateway to the city," making it the perfect spot for a tribute, said Chuck Hallstein, vice president of M&J Management, which owns and operates 18 McDonald's restaurants in Pennsylvania.
