Antoines, established in 1840, is the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Louisiana. The invention of dental floss as we know it goes to a New Orleans dentist, who in 1815 began advising his patients to use a thin silk thread to clean between their teeth. New Orleans is the No. 1 port in trade with Latin America. Also, much of the world's food, coffee and oil pass through the Port of New Orleans. Metairie is home to the longest bridge over water in the world, the Lake Pontchartrain causeway. The causeway is 24 miles long. New Orleans was given to the Spanish in 1763 following the Seven Years War. In 1788, a major fire destroyed 80% of the city's buildings. The Spanish rebuilt many of the damaged buildings, which are still standing today. For this reason, the French Quarter display more Spanish than French influence. The now-famous Hurricane drink was created at Pat OBriens Bar in the 1940s. New Orleans was one of the five major ports of arrival for immigrants in the 19th and 20th centuries. For most of the period of 1837 to 1860, New Orleans attracted more immigrants than any other city in the country besides New York.
