Spork3245 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I seriously don't understand why you guys think cheesesteaks are "nasty". If you've never had one from Centra/South NJ or from Philly/surrounding suburbs, I guess I'd understand why. I had one in Maryland once and it was probably the most horrible sandwich I've had in my life. A pile of grease and stringy meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like cheesesteaks in general, I think anything slathered in Cheez Wiz is kinda gross. I'd agree with @skillzdadirecta in that the further you get away from a "Philly Cheesesteak" the better they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, that's a Pat's thing... after the Seinfeld Soup Nazi episode they tried to emulate the Soup Nazi's order-BS (no, really - they would make people go to the back of the line and "try again"). It's one of the many reasons Pat's sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not bad-mouthing cheesesteaks in general, just that it seems the ones from Philly are grossly overrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of the actual Philly-region, there's this belief about peppers & onions + buttered roll being part of a Philly Cheesesteak... I assure you, it's not; those are extras But anyway, the best Cheesesteaks are in South NJ at Gaetano's or Donkey's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppers, onions, and usually mushrooms make it a steak bomb. I'd actually prefer my cheese steaks pretty plain, but I'll normally get an egg on it when I gave the option because fried eggs make everything better.

Yet, people still want to talk about nasty ass cheesesteaks. Philly's food scene is incredible these days and I rarely get cheesesteaks, having lived in Philly most of my life I never eat them often. You should only get them once in a blue moon, but when I do, and I go to the right place, they taste amazing. I love tacos too and certainly eat them more often than cheesesteaks, they are a lot lighter to eat. 2 hours ago, Spork3245 said: I seriously don't understand why you guys think cheesesteaks are "nasty".

I went to Pats a couple years after that nonsense started and they had signs with "have payment ready before ordering", "must say 'wit' or 'wit out'", "keep a straight line", etc. At that point they weren't enforcing it, though.

Covid has really ruined things, I miss going out to all the cool food places that would pop up. Barbacoa is definitely the place for meat. There's Deke's and Manayunk and Fette Sau in Philly proper for older places that specialize in it too, but some of the new places are very yum.

marioandsonic Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Geno's may be pretty much nothing but tourist food, but I can't help but feel affection for it, because it was where I had my first (and only) kiss. A stupid reason, but still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
