I would never ever ever ever eat a cheesesteak outside of the Philly area unless the proprietor is from the Philly area.

That's just silly.

Silly? When I was up in Rhode Island, as a goof I took a stab at trying their "cheesesteak". I got a slab of skirt steak on a round roll, with green peppers, and a slice of cheese. Now, that's silly. And don't get me started on what they served me as what should have been a stromboli. Unbelievable.

Individual places...there are plenty of good cheesesteaks outside of Philly. PLenty of good pizza outside of Chicago...I htink you get the point. Now, it may be more hit and miss outside of the "home" area.

I mean, on a chicken cheesesteak maybe.....but, seriously?

This is what I'm talking about. Please no one say they put Swiss cheese on it - PLEASE.

just a little mayo

steak, mushroom, swiss with au jus for dipping.....dayum

Ya see, that's what I mean. That's not a cheesesteak. That's something, alright, but it's not a cheesesteak. And with au jus for dipping? This is sounding more and more like a roast beef sandwich.

That was hysterical the way John Kerry was and is still mocked in Philly for ordering a cheesesteak with swiss cheese.

Oh, I've had solid attempts at a cheesesteak in other parts of the country and NONE of them come close to one around here. Even the worst one around here is better than any outside of here. Draw a circle around Philly from up to about Allentown to the north, Harriburg to the west, eastern shore of Maryland/Cape May, NJ to the south and AC to the east and you have your region. And it's because the rolls in this area are serviceable to those areas. It's all about our rolls.

Hahaha, yeah, I think it cost him some votes here.

Cool list, thanks for posting.

I still think there is something to be said for hitting Pat's and Geno's latenight if you aren't a Philly native.

What a great job that guy has...if he survives.

thats true, a little far if you live in the northeast, steves is usually my steak of choice late night.
not only did he survive, we just did the great hoagie hunt this past spring, he had to have eaten over 50 hoagies as well

See, I think that's bullshit. I htink you have to at least 1 of them and then try some of the others if you wanna see the difference. If you're a Philly local I can understand it since I assume you've already tried it, right?

well you're wrong. pats and genos both suck

Ok....whatever. I just think someone NOT from Philly should still hit that corner once in their lives.
